How can data gathering and design features be built into the design of interventions to make it easier to measure the impact of policies and adjust them if they are failing to meet their intended goals?

Background

The Industrial Strategy is not a statement of policy at a single point in time, but a live strategy that will evolve and respond to economic, technical, and societal changes over the next decade. Effective ongoing M&E will be essential to learning the lessons from implementation and evolving the strategy in response to delivery progress and relevant developments in the UK and global economy.
