Abstract: In September 2014, Beijing Municipal Government released the Suggestions on Further Innovating Institutional Mechanism and Accelerating the Building of National Sci-Tech Innovation Center (hereinafter referred to as the Suggestions). Based on four evaluation criteria including regulatory compliance, rationality, economic effectiveness and interest balance, this report gives an evaluation to the Suggestions relating to its policy documents, the process of policy formulation and implementation and policy outcomes. Evaluation results show that the Suggestions possess basically all the related policy factors, and rational innovation ideas. The report points out that the Suggestions boast supportive policies for realizing relevant policy targets but lack some policy measures for bolstering secondary goals and groups; the formulation of the Suggestions is in line with major administrative policy-making procedures though some procedures are missing; the enforcement of the plans in the Suggestions is properly put into practice and relevant tasks are well assigned, but weak links still remain in resource guarantee and supervision feedback; policy outcomes are yet to present themselves, but recent changes have basically met expected targets. It is suggested that the National Sci-Tech Innovation Center should play a leading role as a power house in driving the national sci-tech movement; efforts should be made to establish a guarantee mechanism coordinating the activity between Beijing and other localities, fully implement the procedure for “public participation” and explore a regulatory mode for implementing relevant systems.
