Assignment experience

Complex questions require more than one kind of expertise.

Our team structure enables assignments to combine methodological, sector, field, data, facilitation, and organisational expertise within one coordinated process.

01

Evaluations and Learning Reviews

Independent assessments of relevance, coherence, effectiveness, efficiency, impact, sustainability, inclusion, and learning.

02

Baseline and Endline Studies

Comparable measurement systems, robust samples, field-ready tools, and transparent analysis for programme performance tracking.

03

Strategic and Institutional Assignments

Strategic planning, organisational assessment, policy and manual development, and implementation roadmaps.

04

Research and Evidence Generation

Applied research, qualitative inquiry, market and labour studies, policy analysis, and evidence synthesis.

Community and stakeholder engagement during a research assignment
From national systems to local realities

Research that connects institutional priorities with lived experience.

Our assignments can combine document and policy review, stakeholder interviews, organisational inquiry, household surveys, participatory discussion, observation, and case-based learning.

Field systems are adapted to the location, population, language, accessibility, safeguarding, and conflict-sensitivity requirements of each study.

Delivery approach

Clear stages. Active quality control. No surprises.

We establish shared expectations early, maintain communication throughout, and document key methodological and operational decisions.

01

Inception and alignment

Confirm purpose, users, scope, questions, stakeholders, methods, risks, work plan, and deliverables.

02

Design and preparation

Develop protocols, samples, tools, ethical safeguards, field manuals, analysis plans, and quality checks.

03

Training and piloting

Prepare field teams, test instruments, refine workflows, and confirm readiness before full deployment.

04

Evidence generation

Collect data with active supervision, daily review, digital validation, issue escalation, and transparent tracking.

05

Analysis and triangulation

Integrate sources, test patterns, examine differences, assess explanations, and identify limitations.

06

Reporting and use

Develop clear findings, conclusions, recommendations, validation materials, and decision-focused outputs.

Collaborative research and data work
Systems and technology

Digital capability with human judgement at the centre.

Technology supports speed, consistency, security, and visibility, but it does not replace careful design, supervision, interpretation, and communication.

  • Digital fieldworkKoboToolbox, tablet-based data collection, GPS, validation rules, and real-time monitoring.
  • Data managementSecure storage, structured cleaning, coding, documentation, version control, and reproducible analysis.
  • Analysis and visualisationStatistical, qualitative, comparative, contribution-focused, and decision-oriented analytical outputs.
  • Confidentiality and access controlPurpose-limited handling, restricted access, secure transfer, and careful reporting of sensitive information.
