Limina’s research department engages in a wide variety of research activities annually, with monitoring and evaluation being the most frequently requested tasks.
We tailor our monitoring and evaluation services to meet the unique needs of each client, ensuring impactful results. These include:
Our team assesses whether a programme is achieving its intended objectives and goals by precisely measuring the progress being made. This process allows us to identify any obstacles that may need to be addressed to ensure the successful attainment of the project outputs.
These checks verify that planned activities are executed as intended within a project. It ensures that inputs and resources are utilised correctly and efficiently to maintain the project’s integrity and effectiveness.
This thorough process is carried out to ensure that all activities within a programme adhere to and are in compliance with the relevant laws and regulations within legal frameworks.
Finances are meticulously examined during this process to ensure that funds are used appropriately and efficiently. We verify that the funds are being utilised as planned and address any deviations that may arise.
Our team investigates to determine whether the intended changes within the organisation have actually taken place.
This comprehensive plan outlines our approach to conducting Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E). It clearly explains the purpose, scope, structure, and guidelines that will guide our M&E processes.
We visualise the anticipated changes within the project to define what success will look like in each context. A Theory of Change (ToC) analysis encompasses the project outcomes, outputs, activities, and all other elements necessary to achieve these changes.
This managerial tool details schedules, resources, roles and responsibilities for data collection and analysis and identifies team responsibilities for reporting and dissemination. Our M&E plan seamlessly integrates with our work plans, financial plans, and other strategic processes.
We develop a matrix or a Logical Framework as a management tool to present the intervention logic (all elements involved in the project objectives, purpose, expected results and activities)compared to assumptions, objectively verifiable indicators and sources of verification. We use the LogFrame to improve the design of interventions.
We utilise a Balanced Scorecard (BSC) to ensure that our measurement systems, performance systems, and communications mechanisms are aligned with our strategic initiatives and personal objectives.
Our research team is comprised of experts in both qualitative and quantitative research, enabling us to employ a mixed-method approach in our M&Es. We gather data through various means, including surveys and questionnaires, interviews, focus group discussions, user data, programme data, visuals, and more.
Limina uses state-of-the-art tools, including MAXQDA, Atlas.ti and Nivivo, to support qualitative and quantitative analysis.
