5 of the 24 services on this page
- Proposal and bid-writing trainingWe teach a team to read a real call for proposals or tender, build its compliance matrix and write a response outline, using the documents they are actually bidding for.→
- AI for research, communications and admin teamsWe teach a team a tested set of AI workflows for their actual work, using only data they are permitted to use, with practical exercises that are assessed.→
- E-learning development and course productionWe produce complete learning modules under your brand: learning design, content, assessments, facilitator materials and tested LMS packaging where contracted.→
- Monitoring and evaluation trainingA practical MEL module built around your team’s actual indicators, tools and reporting duties, so staff can collect, check and report data correctly from the next cycle.→
- Training-of-trainers (ToT)Train and observe an internal trainer cohort using a defined delivery and assessment rubric.→
- Programme evaluationWe review your evaluation brief and evidence base, propose a method that fits the questions and the budget, and cost any fieldwork separately and transparently. Evaluations follow recognised criteria such as relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, impact and sustainability.→
- Third-party monitoring (TPM) in Ghana / West AfricaVerify one accessible Ghana site against agreed evidence requirements; cost travel and independence explicitly.→
- Survey and qualitative analysisWe analyse one survey wave or a set of interview transcripts with a transparent codebook, missing-data checks and reproducible outputs, so every figure and theme can be traced back to the data.→
- Monitoring, evaluation and learning framework designWe repair or build one programme’s theory of change, results framework and indicator definitions before the next reporting cycle, so what you measure is what the programme is meant to change.→
- Institutional and organisational reviewWe review one institutional unit’s mandate, structure, processes and controls, and return options and a prioritised action memo that leadership can decide on.→
- PMO setup & grant delivery officeSet up one programme's reporting, risk and decision cadence with a tested template set.→
- Donor MEL reporting automationWe convert one approved indicator workbook into one funder reporting template, with reconciliation checks and exception handling, so each reporting cycle takes hours instead of weeks and every figure can be traced.→
- Knowledge-base chatbots and internal assistantsWe build a bounded assistant over your permitted documents that cites its sources, refuses what it should not answer, and is tested for leakage before anyone relies on it.→
- WhatsApp and voice agentsWe prototype one voice or WhatsApp journey for your users, with language review and an honest view of the channel’s running costs, before any wider rollout.→
- Data portals and web applicationsWe build a defined portal workflow with roles, validation and acceptance tests, then scope the wider application from what works.→
- Institutional website designWe design and build focused institutional websites with the content, performance and accessibility criteria agreed up front, the way this site was built.→
- Funding and tender alertsWe screen your organisation against a defined set of current funding calls and tenders, and give you a clear verdict on each: bid, partner or pass, with the reason and the next action.→
- Grant proposal writing for donorsWe review one donor call and your project concept, then produce the narrative, logframe and budget workstream the call requires, built on evidence you can stand behind.→
- Donor-project visibility and communicationsWe produce a visibility toolkit built against your actual grant agreement and your funder’s approval process, so every output credits the funder correctly the first time.→
- Content engineWe turn one approved report or body of work into an agreed set of audience-specific assets, with formats, volumes and revision rounds fixed at the start.→
- Report design and publication productionWe design a polished, accessible sample chapter or spread first, so you can judge the quality before committing, then scope the complete production.→
- Communications strategy and campaign plansWe build an audience, message and channel diagnostic for one real campaign, with a measurement plan you can run, before any wider strategy is written.→

Strategic plan template

SOP template and process-control builder
Write a standard operating procedure with the trigger, the steps, who does each one, the controls and the records. The builder will not finish the SOP until every exception has an escalation path.

Learning outcomes and assessment mapper
List each learning outcome, the level of thinking it asks for and the task that assesses it. The mapper flags outcomes with no task, tasks that test at a lower level than the outcome, weights that do not add up and verbs you cannot observe.
Open the tool -
Free tool
Training budget calculator
Enter your participants, cohort size, sessions and your own cost quotes. The planner separates fixed from variable costs, shows the cost per participant and per learning hour, and compares cohort sizes side by side.
