Evaluation

---

Whether scientific, technical or regulatory in nature, how do you define the impact of your programs and services, and how do you determine they are being delivered efficiently, effectively and sustainably. Monitoring and evaluation is critical to determining where and how to implement effective change in your organization, and to remaining ahead of key drivers and emerging needs. It is also a pre-requisite for delivering on results. 

TDV provides monitoring and evaluation excellence and best practices to organizational leaders, policy-makers and analysts, including those in national and local governments, international organizations, and the voluntary and NGO sector. We pride ourselves in adhering to high standards of practice in conducting structured evaluations and targeted reviews and studies of organizations, projects, policies, programs and the delivery of services. We are conversant on the Policy on Results and Directive on Results, as well as international standards such as the OECD DAC. 

 In terms of performance management, we have extensive experience in results-based management, having developed RMAFs, Performance Measurement Strategies, Program Information Profiles or other results framework for a wide range of clients.

As a thought leader on results-based management, TDV Global designed and delivered a two-day training workshop on Delivering for Results in partnership with Building Blocks Technologies. http://www.bblockstech.com/assets/course_outlines/gov/DEL.pdf 

Program Evaluation 

Evaluation is an objective process of understanding how a program or other intervention was implemented, what effects it had, for whom, how and why. Evaluations need to be tailored to the type of program being considered, and the types of questions it intends to answer.  evaluations generate reliable results for our clients which can be used and quoted with confidence.

Our evaluations empower organizational leaders and managers to improve strategies and programs and justify reinvestment or resource savings. We help show you whether policies and programs are delivering as planned, and whether resources are being used efficiently and effectively.

 The results of TDV evaluations play important roles in setting and delivering on organizational priorities and objectives, demonstrating accountability, and providing defensible evidence for independent scrutiny. We contribute valuable knowledge to the program evidence base, feeding into future program and policy development, occupying a crucial role in the planning and policy cycles. 

TDV Global has Credentialed Evaluators (CE) with the Canadian Evaluation Society (CES), bilingual and well-experienced in both quantitative and qualitative methods. We are very conversant in Treasury Board policies, including the Policy on Results and the Directive on Results. Having undertaken various international assignments, we are also conversant with the OECD DAC evaluation guidelines, and the WHO guidelines. We can speak in the many lexicons of results-based management, from logical frameworks to logic models, and from a host of governments both within the EU, as well as North America.
