Three integrated service pillars built around one goal: helping development organizations generate better evidence and use it more effectively.
MEL systems that go beyond compliance reporting — designed to drive strategic learning, adaptive management, and program improvement at every level.
Discuss a projectDevelopment of comprehensive MEL frameworks including Theories of Change (ToC), Program Impact Pathways (PIP), Logical Frameworks (LFA), Logic Models, and Performance Measurement Frameworks (PMF) — tailored to program scale and funder requirements.
Design and deployment of user-friendly data collection tools (mobile and paper-based), structured databases, and live dashboards that enable real-time decision-making across program teams.
Rigorous baseline, midline, and endline evaluations using mixed-methods approaches. We conduct developmental, process, and impact evaluations with appropriate designs — from quasi-experimental to Cluster-RCTs — matched to the evaluation question.
Facilitating structured pause-and-reflect sessions, learning workshops, and after-action reviews that help teams translate data into real-time program adjustments and institutional knowledge.
Independent program monitoring for funders and implementing organizations, alongside evidence synthesis and policy inputs designed to influence decision-making at system level.
In-depth research that answers complex questions, fills critical knowledge gaps, and generates evidence that translates directly into program and policy action.
Discuss a projectAnaemia prevalence studies, urinary iodine concentration surveys, wheat flour fortification assessments, and micronutrient status surveys — designed with appropriate sampling and statistical rigour.
Data quality audits, supply chain and feasibility assessments, healthcare provider studies, and rapid assessments to strengthen the evidence base for health system strengthening.
Process evaluations and implementation research to test how efficacious interventions can be brought to scale — providing locally-informed, evidence-based solutions for scale-up.
Repeated cross-sectional mixed-method surveys, qualitative formative research, needs assessments, and process documentation using KIIs, IDIs, FGDs, and ethnographic approaches.
Systems mapping, contribution analysis, outcome harvesting, and thought leadership research — including policy briefs and evidence syntheses on climate resilience, public health, education, and governance.
Hands-on advisory and capacity-building support that helps organizations become more evidence-driven, better funded, and more strategically effective.
Discuss a projectCustomized workshops and long-term coaching for government, NGO, and INGO staff on MEL, large-scale data analysis, demographic techniques, and evidence-based storytelling — in-person or remote.
Facilitation of data-driven strategic planning processes that align organizational goals with what the evidence shows works — from situation analysis to results frameworks and costed plans.
Supporting the design of evidence-based programs and strengthening MEL sections of grant proposals — improving the technical quality of bids to donors including USAID, FCDO, Gates Foundation, and UN agencies.
Building systems that capture, synthesize, and share institutional knowledge and programmatic learning — including knowledge product development for diverse stakeholders and communication audiences.
Leveraging machine learning and modern technology for program monitoring, alongside rigorous cost-effectiveness analysis, cost-benefit analysis, ROI, and social impact assessments for investment decisions.
