Applied Research & Analytics

Devtsol > Services > Applied Research & Analytics

At DEVTSOL Consult, we believe that great decisions begin with great data. Our Applied Research & Analytics service is the foundation upon which organizations, governments, and development partners build effective, measurable, and lasting interventions.

We deliver rigorous, context-driven research that enables clients to understand complex realities, assess needs, track progress, and inform strategic planning. Whether you’re piloting a new development programme, evaluating an existing project, or designing a policy framework, we provide the evidence base to help you succeed.

What we offer

Baseline Studies & Needs Assessments

We conduct detailed baselines and diagnostics to establish benchmarks for programmes and policies. Our assessments cover communities, organizations, value chains, and systems.

Monitoring & Evaluation (M&E)

We design and implement M&E frameworks that track progress, measure impact, and support learning. Our team supports ongoing monitoring as well as mid- and endline evaluations.

Participatory M&E

We help clients develop systems that include beneficiaries and frontline workers in the learning loop. This ensures ownership, inclusivity, and real-time feedback.

Beneficiary & Impact Assessments

We measure what really matters, how lives are changed. Our assessments cover intended and unintended impacts across social, economic, environmental, and gender dimensions.

Policy Research & Advocacy Support

We support institutions with research that informs national and subnational policy design. Our analytics enable clients to advocate for practical, evidence-informed solutions.

Proposal Writing & Grant Applications

We work with NGOs and social enterprises to develop data-rich, compelling proposals for donor and equity-based funding, including logframes, problem analyses, and theory of change models.

Economic & Sectoral Landscape Reviews

We deliver insights into markets, employment trends, and enabling environments, helping clients identify entry points, gaps, and high-potential opportunities.

Our Approach

Our research process is grounded in:

  • Participatory methods that engage communities and stakeholders
  • Gender- and equity-sensitive frameworks
  • Quantitative and qualitative methodologies
  • Sectoral insights across governance, agriculture, youth employment, digital inclusion, etc.

We align our approach with global best practices (e.g. OECD DAC, UN SDG indicators) while tailoring tools to Ghanaian and African development contexts.
