Sesta Development Services (SDS) plays a critical role in Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) to ensure that development
projects are effectively designed, implemented, and achieve their intended impact. M&E is a core component of SDS’s
strategy for driving improvements in project performance, accountability, and learning.
How SDS Delivers Monitoring & Evaluation

Establishing a Robust M&E Framework
SDS starts by designing a comprehensive M&E framework tailored to each project. This framework outlines key objectives, indicators,
and tools used to measure progress and assess outcomes, while clearly defining timelines, roles, and responsibilities across each
stage of the M&E cycle.
Theory of Change (ToC) & Results-Based Framework
Using a Theory of Change, SDS maps how activities credibly lead to outputs, outcomes, and long-term impact, surfacing the key
assumptions and enabling conditions. This underpins a results-based framework for consistent planning, measurement, and learning.
Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)
SDS defines clear KPIs to track processes and results aligned to project goals—for example, higher agricultural productivity, improved
farmer incomes, or enhanced access to markets—enabling timely management decisions and accountability.
Evaluating Outcomes & Impact
Guided by the framework, SDS conducts systematic evaluations to understand short- and long-term effects of interventions. Evidence on
outcomes and impact informs adaptive management, policy dialogue, and scale-up decisions.
Baseline, Midline & Endline Evaluations
SDS conducts baselines to set reference values at project start, midlines to check trajectory and course-correct during implementation,
and endlines to assess overall achievements against targets and draw lessons for future programming.
