Who it’s for

  • A funder requires a theory of change or a measurement framework, and you do not have a formal version.
  • Your mission is clear in your head, but you do not have indicators to demonstrate it to a board or a funding partner.
  • A major grant application requires a measurement framework you have never had time to write.

What you get

  • A documented theory of change: your change hypotheses, from activity to final outcome.
  • Indicators attached to each step of the results chain.
  • A data collection plan: who collects what, how often, and with what tool.

Frequently asked questions

Does this replace a program evaluation?
No. The measurement framework establishes the indicators and the data collection plan. A formal program evaluation is a separate exercise, outside the package.
How much does this package cost?
Rates are shared during the discovery call, calibrated to the precise scope of your mandate. No price is posted publicly.
Can I buy this package on its own, without the others?
Yes. Every package is sold individually. You start with the package that answers your immediate need, with no required sequence.
Who produces the deliverable, Michele or a team?
Michele Musci, directly. FILO limits the number of active mandates at a time to keep a senior presence on each one.
