This evaluation of the Consortium of British Humanitarian Agencies Early Recovery Programme in Pakistan focused the implementation and results of the activities and the use of a consortium model of collaborative efforts to deliver the programme. The major success of this programme was that it exceeded its original output targets by about 28 per cent. This was largely due to savings on exchange rates and on bulk procurements. This provided a very strong indication of the ability of this group of agencies to deliver effectively and jointly on a large scale in a difficult context. Consistent attempts by members of the consortium to implement a functional accountability mechanism represented another important success.
