1. Monitoring and evaluation

We design and run evaluations that answer the questions your accounting officer, oversight bodies and funders actually ask: did it work, for whom, at what cost, and what should change?

• Diagnostic, design, implementation, outcome and impact evaluations
• M&E frameworks, indicator design and technical indicator descriptions
• Theories of change and logical frameworks
• Rapid evaluations and evaluability assessments
• Management responses and improvement plans

7. Evidence verification

As more reports are produced with AI tools, errors in references, data and citations have become a reputational and audit risk. We independently check reports, submissions and policy documents before they leave your institution.

• Checks that each reference exists and supports the claim it is cited for
• Data and figure reconciliation against source documents
• Consistency review across sections, tables and annexures
• Verification certificate and issues log
