This study aimed to examine R&D evaluation practices in the given context, building on the body of knowledge in R&D management and program evaluation. An extended new research in this area shall address the question: How can we evaluate public R&D program for improved performance? The underlying objective of this study was to develop an appropriate framework to evaluate the public R&D program within the given country context. Through application of the conceptual framework to a case study, this study examined the main components and the dynamic process of performance evaluation of the public R&D at program level. This study therefore will demonstrate the importance of program evaluation in improving the performance of the public R&D program. This study employed case study, mixed method design to collect data and address the research question. Logic model and cross case analysis techniques were employed to analyze the case study at both the project and program levels…
