Results framework
Indicators at each level of results, with baselines, targets, data sources and owners.
Monitoring and evaluation, midyear and year-end assessments
We work with your planning and monitoring staff on how results are measured and reported, and we facilitate the midyear and year-end assessments where the team reviews what was achieved and decides what to change.
When to call us
Offices usually call us in situations like these.
- reports count activities, but not results
- indicators have no baselines, targets or owners
- the midyear or year-end assessment is coming, and the team needs a facilitator
- findings are reported, but the plan does not change

Assessments
