Impact Consulting/Monitoring & Evaluation
Service 4

Monitoring & Evaluation

Evidence you can act on — and funders can trust.

Rigorous MEL systems that generate learning during a project, not just reports at the end. We build the results architecture, the data pipeline, and the culture of use behind it.

Who this is for

Built for the organizations we know.

  • Program teams
  • MEL officers
  • Foundations funding evaluations
  • Government implementers
What we deliver

A full practice, not a checklist.

Engage the whole practice, or select the sub-services that fit your moment.

Results Frameworks

Outcome-focused results architectures aligned to funders and to your own theory of change.

Indicators

SMART indicators with definitions, disaggregation, data sources, and collection cadences.

Baseline Studies

Baselines that establish credible counterfactuals and starting points.

Data Collection

Instrument design, field manuals, digital data collection (KoBo/ODK/SurveyCTO), and quality control.

Performance Dashboards

Live dashboards that turn spreadsheets into decisions.

Project Evaluation

Mid-line and end-line evaluations — formative, summative, and impact evaluations.

Impact Reports

Reports funders read and staff use — evidence, story, and next steps in one.

Learning Reports

Rapid learning cycles that surface what to change while a project is still live.

Outcome Measurement

Outcome harvesting, contribution analysis, and most-significant-change methods.

Visualization

Charts, maps, and infographics that make evidence usable across audiences.
