Abstract

The basic functions and procedures of management consulting are contrasted here with formal program evaluation. A case example further illustrates the differing approaches used in programmatic problem solving. The similarities and differences between these two professional specializations are highlighted in order to understand better the unique but complementary contribution each makes to the improvement of program operations.
