Eval12 Session 520: Capacity Building That Works and is Measurable: A Consolidated Approach for Organizational Development Practitioners 

10-29-2012 18:45

Presentation Abstract: Objective, measurable standards to track the progression of Capacity Building efforts for organizations are often not consolidated. In response to this need, Pact developed an approach which consolidates objective Organizational Development (OD) measurement, while ensuring ownership of the process. The OD Roadmap and Comprehensive Institutional Strengthening Plan (CISP) integrate a program theory approach to the evaluation of organizational efficiency. Together these tools provide comprehensive standards for improving an organization’s efficiency in service delivery. This demonstration will show practitioners how they can through a participatory process evaluate expected outcomes along a defined objective pathway for organizational capacity building. Pact has used the OD Roadmap/CISP to measure baseline, and conduct intermediate assessments and final evaluations of capacity building results for local NGOs in Namibia. Within 18 months, the capacity of the local organizations increased by at least one level on a five-level capacity assessment scale, ranging from nascent to mature organizations.
