Monitoring & Evaluation

Monitoring + Evaluation

Are you grappling with the complexities of defining and measuring monitoring and evaluation (M+E)? Struggling to pinpoint the most relevant indicators for your project or program? We’d love to assist you.

At Strategic Matters, we transform M+E from a mere concept into a strategic advantage, facilitating continuous improvement for your business. Collaborating closely with our trusted business associates, we specialise in cutting through the noise surrounding M+E.

Drawing upon our broad experience with national, state, and local projects, we go beyond mere discussion—we deliver tangible results.

Our approach is tailored to meet the needs of your project, whether you require a comprehensive overview or an in-depth analysis of specific processes.

We invest time in understanding your measurement needs and objectives and bring your key stakeholders on board too.

Our methodology integrates qualitative and quantitative research. Examples include data analysis, surveys, interviews, and case studies.

We don’t just evaluate; we strive to gain a thorough understanding of project success and establishing metrics that realistically assess both outcomes and outputs.

With Strategic Matters’ M+E solutions, you can assess progress and impact while identifying key areas for enhancement
