Project Design and Proposal Writing

CBSG provides specialist services to help NGOs and Donors design development projects in health, education, economic development, rural development, governance improvement and so on. We play the role of a facilitator in the design process where all stakeholders, in particular the implementing agencies, play the anchor role.

Project Appraisal

We conduct project appraisal for donors and development partners. We look at the relevance, feasibility and sustainability of the project while appraising a project. CBSG has strong professional competencies to conduct project and program appraisal in social and livelihood sectors.

Project Implementation Planning

CBSG has strong expertise in conceptualizing a project document into an operational plan, commonly called as Project Implementation Plan (PIP). It uses Performance Measurement Framework (PMF) and spells out expected results, performance indicators, and implementations methods, and pin points responsibility centers / positions, timeframe and reporting structures. The PIP document works as a guide for project implementation, monitoring and reporting on results.

Project Evaluation

Monitoring and evaluation are integral parts of Project Cycle Management. CBSG has hands on experience on project evaluation, output to purpose review and impact evaluation. CBSG uses both formative and review approaches for project and program evaluation while considering relevance, effectiveness, efficiency and impact both at project design and implementation.
