The evaluation will review the design, management and implementation of the Alacrity programme from 2015 to assess its suitability in supporting the achievement of its aims and objectives. This will include understanding efficiency of implementation, success factors and unexpected consequences. It will review engagement and participation with international firms, and work undertaken to contribute towards being an ambassador of innovative activity in the regional economy. It will also review whether and how well the programme supports the delivery of key Welsh Government priorities, including the Employability Plan, Economic Action Plan and the Well-being of Future Generations Act. Finally, it will assess the impact of the programme, with particular consideration of the immediate and longer term outcomes and whether these have been achieved and can be attributed to Alacrity.
