Helping You Make the Impact You Really Want
Evaluation and Impact Assessment
These are the processes undertaken that help us see meaningful change.
We take this off your plate and lend an experienced eye to help you get the information and tools you need to understand what’s working and what can be improved.
Whether your goal is to understand success mid-project or you’re looking at assessing endline impacts, we focus on data-driven learning and round it out with ensuring you can communicate findings in the most accessible and efficient way for your team and stakeholders.
Tailored to individual project needs, we help measure meaningful, sustainable outcomes against project goals and theories of change.
Project highlight: Evaluating the impact and sustainability of CBO-managed WASH interventions across 7 disadvantaged US communities using a semi-unrestricted funding model
Strategy and Planning
Here we do the deeper work to move your vision from hopes and ideas to an evidence-based reality.
Have a great idea but need to ensure it’s done right? We help you lay solid foundations to define and track outcomes and impact.
We also include here the frameworks for monitoring and impact measurement—the all-important end results of the planning and strategy development process.
We help you establish your guiding principles, mission and goals if you don’t already have them, providing objective subject-matter expertise while keeping things moving forward in a clear, stepwise manner. We also act as a moderator, saving you time and moving you towards achieving those newly established, meaningful goals.
Project highlight: Developed a stakeholder-informed continuous quality improvement and monitoring framework and related data-systems for Honduras-based NGO that they’re using to improve programming and track progress against their strategic plan.
Research, Data and Reporting
Data and evidence are the foundation of everything we do.
And when you’re trying to create positive change, you need to get the data right.
We support teams across all project stages, so whether you’re drowning in existing data that needs to be analyzed for meaningful and useful takeaways, or we’re designing study protocols to answer your critical questions, we help you get the information you need to understand your progress and impact.
We focus on making sure methods are appropriate and transparent, and that the information we generate is useful so you and your stakeholders can trust the numbers behind your work. It’s all tailored to your project—no plug and chug here.
Project highlight: Assessing factors associated with gaps in tuberculosis infection care among refugee populations through a retrospective cohort study, leading to improvements in clinical and programmatic operations where these patients were served
Capacity Development
The sustainability and effectiveness of your work will be reliant on how equipped your team is to understand and use evaluation principles, QI processes, and data.
We support teams to be more proficient and to have a better understanding of the work we’re doing together. It gives you more confidence in the processes and work since you’ll understand it better, which ultimately helps you with everything from effectively communicating to stakeholders to winning more funding or investments.
This is all about empowering you and your teams to take bolder, better actions over the lifespan of your project or program, and is a lasting investment in your overall mission.
Project highlight: Monitoring and evaluation for beginners training series, where we focus on monitoring and measurement principles and putting them into practice with easy to use tools and readily available software.
