Explanation: The evaluation of the accomplishment of certain objectives is the primary focus of this inquiry, which also provides the opportunity to measure and evaluate the results. The actual outcomes are compared to the objectives that were intended for the project, process, or initiative, which gives a foundation for assessing the success or effectiveness of the project, process, or initiative. As opposed to directly measuring and comparing outcomes against predefined goals, the other questions, such as “What is working and what is not working?”, “What are the costs and benefits?”, and “Who is benefiting?”, are more focused on gaining an understanding of possible areas of improvement, costs, and benefits, as well as stakeholders.
