Strategy & project delivery
Connect your strategy to the running of your projects.
Whaydon supports international organisations, bilateral agencies and their partners, from strategy to monitoring and evaluation, with tools suited to teams and field conditions.
The problem
A strategy that gets lost along the way.
The logical framework is written, then the work plan lives its own life, indicators are filled in elsewhere and review decisions get lost. When a priority changes, nobody sees everything that has to be revisited.
The point is not to add yet another tool, but to connect what already exists: expected results, activities, responsibilities, indicators, sources, decisions.
How we work
Four dimensions of a mission.
- 01
Strategy
Diagnosis, priorities, stakeholders and conditions for success.
- 02
Structuring
Logical frameworks, expected results, indicators, work plans and responsibilities.
- 03
Steering
Activities, deadlines, coordination, risks and decisions to be taken.
- 04
Monitoring & evaluation
Data collection and analysis, evidence, reviews, reporting and adjustments.
Deliverables
What you get.
- A diagnosis and priorities shared with stakeholders
- A logical framework and a work plan that are consistent with each other
- A monitoring and evaluation system: indicators, means of verification, review calendar
- Software tools including AI, adapted to the mission and to field connectivity, with a decision log
Example
When a deadline is revised.
Expected result: stronger steering capacity. Activity: quarterly review. Indicator: share of review actions closed on time. Means of verification: decision log. A deadline is revised; the related responsibility and activity remain visible, and an item appears “to be decided at the review”.
Illustration of method, no measured value.

Tools are under development or offered as supported pilots, depending on the mission. How they are used (online, offline, integrated into the client’s environment) is settled when the mission is scoped. Subject-matter expertise and human validation frame every use of AI.
