About this award

Written by GovTribe AI ·

This is a federal contract award under the Developmental Evaluation Pilot Activity (DEPA-MERL) project, a $14,476,167.99 contract funded by the U.S. Agency for International Development's (USAID) Global Development Lab. The contract was awarded to Social Impact Inc., a woman-owned small business, to test the effectiveness of a developmental evaluation approach and related monitoring, evaluation, and flexible contracting mechanisms for achieving effective programming in complex contexts. The contract has no set-aside designation. Social Impact has subcontracted with several organizations, including Search for Common Ground and The William Davidson Institute at the University of Michigan, to support the evaluation activities. The goal is to gather evidence through developmental evaluation pilots that will encourage the effective use of this approach to strengthen development programming.

Description

As the agency reported it.

The developmental evaluation pilot activity (depa-merl) will test the effectiveness of a developmental evaluation (DE) approach, as well as accompanying monitoring and evaluation tools and flexible contracting mechanisms, in achieving effective programming for innovative interventions, untested theories of change, and/or implementation in complex contexts. The evidence gathered through DE pilots on a select handful of activities, projects, or programs and the accompanying process evaluations will serve to encourage effective use of DE in strengthen development programming, and in establishing precedence and guidelines for undertaking DES and the use of flexible contracting mechanisms for evaluators, implementing partners and donors to enable enhanced programmatic impact.
