This dissertation focuses on a process evaluation of the City of Cape Town (CoCT) Business Support Voucher Programme (BSVP) which assessed whether this programme was implemented as intended. The BSVP aims to provide access to quality business support services and products to entrepreneurs in order to empower them to develop and grow their businesses. The target beneficiaries of the BSVP are the over 35 year old age group (including women, youth and the disabled) who are potential or start-up entrepreneurs or who own/run existing small businesses. A service utilisation flow chart was used to review the services provided by the allocating agents and the business development service providers. Data providers included the project sponsors, the implementation agent, the allocating agents and a convenience sample of beneficiaries and service providers. Additional materials used included check lists during site visits and a review of records. The findings suggested that whilst the programme was largely implemented as planned, there could be improvements to the definition of the programme targets, the consistency of the implementation across the programme and putting monitoring and reporting systems in place. The dissertation includes selected recommendations for implementation improvement, sustainability and future outcomes and impacts. 2014-09-15T07:30:12Z 2014-09-15T07:30:12Z 2007 Master Thesis Masters MCom http://hdl.handle.net/11427/7475 eng application/pdf Organisational Psychology Faculty of Commerce University of Cape Town |
