Keota Consulting has forecasting strategies and tools to help you look into the future and adjust as reality changes.

Is there enough to implement that new program or hire that new staff?  For how long? A well-designed budget is a road map that keeps you on track.

Resource Management

Applying for resources is often a complex process that requires the tools of project management.  Keota Consulting can help you identify potential funders, plan your entire writing process, and get your application submitted on time.

Successful organizations need adequate resources. How much do you currently need to be successful?  How much to be self-sustaining? Are there untapped resources waiting for your application? The staff at Keota Consulting can help you find answers.

Situational analysis

It can be very helpful to have an objective, outside partner to assess your existing capacity. We ask the right questions, identify strengths and challenges, and create a path forward.

Program life cycle management

Great programs have a life cycle. The best programs are built on the latest research, are implemented with great care, are constantly reviewed, and are phased out or reborn when their time has come.

Capacity Building

Training

What is your organization's capacity to perform all its vital functions:  accounting, program design, IT, evaluation, contracting, quality improvement, customer service, etc.? To reach the next level of excellence, you will need to build capacity. Keota Consulting can help.

Your most valuable resource are your people. Do they have the skills they need to succeed? Are they motivated to achieve the highest quality? Keota trainers are masters at curriculum planning, training delivery, and motivational follow-up.

Data systems

Evaluation and compliance need data. Sometimes systems are simply not up to the task. We can help you assess your systems and plan for their improvement or replacement.

Performance indicators

What are the three to five key factors that you believe reveal if you are succeeding as an organization? If you have too many indicators, or the wrong indicators, you may miss opportunities to improve and grow. You may even miss areas where you are harming those you are dedicated to help. We can help you refine your key questions and monitor your data.

Evaluation & Compliance

Intuitively, you may believe that your organization is achieving all its objectives and that every guideline is being followed. How would you demonstrate that to someone else -- a current funder, a potential funder, a government auditor, or even your own staff and clients? At Keota Consulting, we have decades of experience in evaluation and compliance.

Standards

Standards are the foundation for all success. They help you assess staff, monitor programs, assure compliance, and improve quality. We have decades of experience drafting and updating standards as well as building standards-driven evaluation and assessment systems.
