d) Project Design and Management

Our experienced staff can simplify the complexities associated with program design and
management. By guiding the process from its inception to completion, we collaborate with
clients to establish their needs and how the projects will be set up before mapping out the
execution into manageable steps. We also offer our monitoring and evaluation expertise to
enhance the ability of our clients to measure program performance. Our staff always uses best
practices and measures to ensure quality control to produce results that exceed industry
standards.

e) Monitoring and Operational Evaluation

Results-based management uses a set of principles, approaches, and tools for monitoring and
operational evaluation which can help a program achieving set goals. Monitoring tracks key
indicators of progress over the course of a program to evaluate outcomes. On other hand
operational evaluation examines the gaps between planned and realized outcomes of program,
at a specific point in the delivery lifecycle or after delivery is completed. BASE has deep
experience in assessing how interventions evolve over time in terms of initial goals, indicators,
and outcomes. BASE also helps its clients in setting up the necessary monitoring and
evaluation systems and processes to ensure intended results are achieved as planned.

f) Impact Evaluation

BASE uses tailored impact evaluation design in refining programs before implementation by
forecasting the possible benefits or pitfalls of programs in different socio-economic conditions.
BASE also helps clients based on actual data gathered either after program intervention or
before and after program implementation in measuring actual impacts accrued by beneficiaries
of programs. Thus BASE provides a framework for its clients in understanding whether the
beneficiaries of different projects are actually benefiting from them.
