Program Design

Logic models, implementation plans, and evaluation designs, set before launch so results can be measured.

We design programs from the logic model through the evaluation plan, so results can be measured from launch. For a school of pharmacy, we designed one MPJE module format and filled it in state by state. For California agencies, we designed and ran community outreach campaigns.

Services

Services & deliverables

  • Program architecture & logic models

    We map a program's inputs, activities, outputs, and outcomes into a logic model that staff, funders, and evaluators can all work from.

  • Implementation framework development

    We write the operating plan for launch: roles, workflows, timelines, training needs, and the checkpoints that show whether delivery is on track.

  • Evaluation design & metrics

    We set the indicators, data sources, and evaluation design for a program at the start, so results can be measured from launch.

  • Pilot program design

    We scope small-scale pilots with clear sites, participants, timelines, and success criteria, so a decision to expand rests on evidence.

  • Scaling strategy

    We assess what a proven program needs to grow, including staffing, funding, partners, and adaptations, and lay out a phased expansion plan.

  • Community engagement frameworks

    We plan how communities take part in a program's design and delivery, from advisory groups and listening sessions to feedback loops.

  • Grant & proposal development

    We write grant applications and proposals, including the narrative, logic model, evaluation plan, and budget justification that funders require.

  • Theory of change development

    We work with program leaders to state the long-term change they seek and the conditions and assumptions that must hold to get there.

The method

Where it sits in the method

We set evaluation indicators and data sources at the start, so results can be measured from launch. Each design accounts for the communities a program serves and the systems it runs within. This is Design and Implement work.
