CSNPEI is launching an in-house Impact Measurement and Program Evaluation service through our Shared Services Program. This service will help member organizations plan, implement, and communicate their impact, particularly in relation to grant reporting and funder requirements.
This service takes a consultative approach, working collaboratively with each organization, its funders, and staff to identify the right measurement framework and build a plan suited to their timeline and budget.
Services are available to nonprofits across Canada.
What this service offers
An initial scan of the organization’s current evaluation practices and needs
Recommendations on the most appropriate impact measurement framework for their work
Support in implementing the chosen framework through a collaborative, consultative process
A blended or tailored approach where needed, drawing on multiple frameworks
Ongoing guidance throughout the measurement cycle based on the organization’s timeline
Who is this service for?
Non-profits that are new to impact measurement and need guidance getting started
Organizations preparing grant applications that require an evaluation component
Organizations that have done some evaluation work before but want to strengthen their approach
Any CSNPEI member organization and organizations across Canada seeking support with program evaluation
The evaluation process is consultative and collaborative. It brings together the funder, the beneficiaries, and the organization’s staff to define what meaningful impact looks like and how best to measure it. This approach reflects best practice in the sector, where the most effective metrics emerge from dialogue rather than being imposed by funders alone.
Budget and Pricing
Pricing is scoped to each project and determined collaboratively based on the organization's needs, timeline, and available budget. Most funders expect evaluation to cost between 10 and 20% of a project budget. Our rates fall within this range.
CSNPEI's rates are competitive, and we offer a free consultation to talk through your needs and work out a scope that fits your budget.
