Empirical studies globally have revealed that utilization of findings from the Monitoring and Evaluation Function have been seen to be critical in projects especially in contributing to the success of interventions in communities. Unfortunately, implementation factors are advanced as limiting such utilization but remain less studied in Uganda. This study was thus set out to establish the effects of Implementation Factors on the utilization of Monitoring & Evaluation findings from the Malaria Control Programs implemented in Mukono District, Central Uganda. The study adopted a cross-sectional research design in which data was collected from a total of 120 randomly selected employees who were part of Malaria Control Programs implementation and a Multiple Regression Model fitted in SPSS Version 20.0, Results showed insignificant effects of evaluation quality, capacity and communication but positive significant effect of timeliness on the utilization of Monitoring and Evaluation Findings. It was concluded that on average, Monitoring and Evaluation results were rarely utilized in the implementation of the Malaria Control Programs among the implementing organizations (Mean = 2.34, S.D = 0.56). The study henceforth recommended that management staff of the organizations implementing programs should design and institute mechanisms which ensure timely collection, analysis and reporting of the Monitoring & Evaluation results if utilization levels are to be enhanced.
