Rasa Sunrise Consulting offers Monitoring & Evaluation services to define a road map to navigate the entire spectrum of portfolio management, program management, and project management. Our experience, technology, and network enable us to provide comprehensive Monitoring & Evaluation services to governments, donor agencies, and implementing organizations that appreciate knowing how their funds and efforts actually impact individuals and communities.
At the core of all our services, Monitoring & Evaluation is a habit. We practice regular monitoring in our day-to-day operations and are the strictest of evaluators of our own work.
As with any significant effort, Monitoring & Evaluation needs more than just a plan to be implemented effectively: it requires a system. System elements are interrelated and work together to create a whole known as the M&E system. M&E system facilitates an M&E plan’s implementation.
To precisely estimate the impact of an intervention, organizations need to conduct a survey that serves as a benchmark (baseline survey) against which the results of the completed intervention (endline survey) can be compared.
Rasa Sunrise Consulting’s decade-long, uninterrupted presence in challenging and high-risk environments enables us to avoid, or at least, significantly mitigate risks arising from operating in conflict zones such as Afghanistan’s different regions.
A vast majority of development and aid interventions in countries such as Afghanistan, Iraq, and Yemen are undertaken in remote and isolated areas to support the needy populations. However, given the logistic challenges, high costs, and security risks of operating field monitoring and data collection, an independent and objective oversight to development and aid interventions’ field activities is, in most cases, absent.
M&E data quality assessment is not only a high-in-demand donor requirement but also a critical process in ensuring that M&E data meets the common five data quality requirements of validity, reliability, integrity, precision and timeliness. Conducted once every few months, the assessment is a quality check of, more particularly, the indicator data for a given project or program.
Program Performance Evaluation is an essential element of development and aid interventions which studies a program’s performance in accordance with the donor/organization’s governance, performance, and accountability rules and guidelines. The aim is to produce credible programmatic evidence for making significant programming decisions to ensure relevance, efficiency, and effectiveness, with the end goal of realizing the desired results.
