Proposal Development & Project Design

Proposal Development

• Strengthening proposals through tailored, multidimensional evaluation plans

  We work with clients nationwide to develop comprehensive evaluation approaches and strategies that strengthen grant proposals and increase competitiveness. Our Development Team engages in collaborative project planning to create evaluation frameworks that align seamlessly with both project goals and the specific requirements and priorities outlined in Requests for Proposals or Solicitations. Our multidimensional evaluation plans establish a robust framework for both formative and summative assessment, designed to determine progress and provide actionable feedback for project improvement, assess success in achieving stated objectives, and evaluate the broader outcomes and impacts of the project.

Project Design

• Building frameworks that connect goals to outcomes
  We partner with you from the ground up to conceptualize and structure projects with clarity and strategic intent. Working collaboratively, we help you articulate meaningful goals and develop frameworks that provide a cohesive lens for understanding how each component of your work connects to your desired outcomes. Our design process focuses on building strategic methods and systems into the foundation of your project—establishing the structures, benchmarks, and indicators that will guide implementation and reveal impact. This intentional approach to project architecture ensures that success is not only achievable but measurable, giving you the tools and frameworks to know with confidence whether your initiative is meeting its objectives and creating the change you envision.
