Programme design and evidence of delivery
Monitoring, Evaluation & Report Writing
Programme design, monitoring frameworks and clear reporting for programme leaders, nonprofits and donor-funded teams.
Three connected services
Plan the work. Measure the results.
Build a practical programme framework, follow delivery and explain the evidence clearly.
Programme design and results frameworks
Define the problem, intended change and delivery plan, with a clear link between activities, outputs and outcomes.
- Theory of change and logframes
- Work plans, roles and timelines
- Programme and budget alignment
Scope and deliverables
Programme design sets out the problem, intended changes, activities and delivery responsibilities using your team’s knowledge and available evidence. The work plan explains what will be delivered, by whom and how progress will be measured.
- Problem and needs statements grounded in available evidence
- Programme objectives, activities, outputs and outcomes
- Theory of change, results frameworks and logframes
- Work plans, roles, timelines, assumptions and risks
- Alignment between programme design and budget narratives
Monitoring and evaluation frameworks
Choose indicators, data sources and review points that fit the programme and the people responsible for delivery.
- Indicators and data-collection plans
- Monitoring schedules
- Evaluation questions and evidence
Scope and deliverables
Turn programme objectives into indicators and data-collection plans that fit the delivery setting. The framework identifies what will be measured, where evidence will come from, who is responsible and when results will be reviewed.
- Measurable indicators linked to outputs and outcomes
- Data sources, collection methods and responsibilities
- Monitoring schedules and reporting plans
- Evaluation questions and evidence needs
- Learning and review points for programme teams
Evaluation analysis and report writing
Turn qualitative and quantitative information into reports with clear findings, limitations and recommendations.
- Programme and donor reports
- Evaluation findings and lessons
- Editing and restructuring
Scope and deliverables
Evaluation support covers the organisation and analysis of qualitative and quantitative information and the interpretation of findings for programme implementation. Reports distinguish activities delivered, results observed and the limits of the available evidence.
The scope of data collection and analysis is agreed around the programme, source material and access available. Your team reviews the factual information and programme context before the report is finalised.
- Programme progress and performance reports
- Donor and stakeholder reporting
- Evaluation findings and technical narratives
- Outcome summaries, lessons learned and recommendations
- Editing and restructuring of existing reports
Connect the proposal and delivery plan
M&E support within a grant or contract proposal
A proposal’s measurement plan should reflect the work and resources being proposed. Aligning the M&E narrative with the implementation approach, staffing, timeline and budget produces a consistent delivery plan.
How the work is developed
Review the programme and reporting requirements
Start with the programme documents, funder guidance, existing framework, reporting deadline and available data.
Agree the questions and evidence plan
Clarify the intended use, audience, measures, sources and responsibilities.
Develop the framework or report
Build the agreed structure, analyse the available information and draft the narrative and supporting materials.
Review with your team
Check accuracy, interpretation, consistency and the agreed reporting requirements before finalising the deliverable.
What to share at the start
Send the current opportunity link, RFP or reporting brief, together with its instructions, required template and deadline. Include your project plan, relevant experience, budget, available data and earlier reports where applicable.
We prepare the work around that opportunity’s requirements, using its prescribed structure, questions, word limits, evidence and submission format. Any missing information is identified before drafting.
Share your programme documents, reporting requirements or draft report to discuss the work needed.
Monitoring and reporting questions
Can you develop an M&E plan before a project begins?
Yes. A framework can be developed during programme design or proposal preparation, with indicators, methods and reporting responsibilities aligned to the planned activities and resources.
Can you work with an existing framework or draft report?
Yes. Review can strengthen the links between objectives and indicators, identify evidence gaps and improve the report’s structure and consistency.
Do you support reporting after funding is awarded?
Yes. Support can include programme and donor reports, evaluation narratives, analysis and lessons learned, according to the agreed scope and available evidence.
Is this service available separately from proposal writing?
Yes. Programme design, M&E frameworks and report writing can be scoped as standalone assignments or as part of a grant or contract proposal.
Discuss your monitoring or reporting needs
Share the programme context, the deliverable you need, the deadline and the information already available.
