Although there are several ways to assess a collaborative process, the following are relevant topics:

1. Collaborative context: Does the context support collaboration?

2. Competent representation: Are the selected stakeholder representatives competent?

3. Diversity: Do stakeholders accept and embrace diversity among the stakeholders?

4. Collaborative attitude: Do stakeholders demonstrate the attitudes needed for collaboration?

5. Effective communication: Do stakeholders communicate directly and effectively?

6. Collaborative structure: Has a results driven structure been created and maintained?
