Monitoring & Evaluation Software in Ethiopia

From logframe to donor report in one system: indicator tracking, offline mobile data collection and dashboards for NGOs and public programmes.

Monitoring & Evaluation Software in Ethiopia

A Results-Based M&E MIS, Built and Supported in Ethiopia

360Ground’s Monitoring, Evaluation & MIS (M&E MIS) is a results-based monitoring and evaluation system for NGOs, UN agencies and donor-funded government programmes in Ethiopia. It links your logframe and indicators to offline mobile data collection, dashboards and donor reports. It is built by the team behind ATI’s integrated management platform, with cascading plans and weighted KPIs, and the Ministry of Education’s QESSP data system, which tracks 60+ indicators across 33,000+ schools. Because we own the core code, we extend the system to fit your results framework instead of changing your process. It can integrate with KoboToolbox, ODK, DHIS2 and your ERP, and can be hosted locally.

1. What is an M&E system?

A monitoring and evaluation (M&E) system is the set of indicators, data collection tools, processes and reports an organisation uses to track whether a programme is delivering its planned results. Monitoring follows progress routinely against targets; evaluation assesses outcomes and impact at set points. An M&E MIS is the software that holds the results framework, collects field data, calculates indicators and produces dashboards and donor reports from one source.
The core components are a results framework or logframe; indicators with reference sheets defining each one, its baseline and targets; data collection tools and schedules; data quality checks; a database; analysis and dashboards; reporting to management and donors; and clear roles for who collects, verifies and uses the data. A good M&E MIS brings all of these into one system, so an indicator is defined once and reported consistently.
Start from the programme’s theory of change and results framework, then define a small set of indicators with reference sheets, baselines, targets and data sources. Next, decide how and how often data is collected, who verifies it and which reports each donor needs. The Ministry of Education’s QESSP work followed this path: 60+ indicators tracking 9 strategies, a performance indicator reference sheet, and an offline data system that 360Ground built and rolled out nationwide.
Common tools include logframes and indicator performance tracking tables (IPTTs), mobile survey tools such as KoboToolbox and ODK, health information systems such as DHIS2, spreadsheets, and dashboards in tools such as Power BI. Many programmes start with Excel and Kobo forms. A dedicated M&E MIS connects these pieces, so field data flows automatically into indicators, targets and donor reports instead of being copied between files.
KoboToolbox and ODK are strong, free tools for mobile surveys, and they share the same XLSForm format. They collect data well but do not manage a results framework, targets, indicator calculations or donor reporting. You need an M&E MIS when several projects or donors share indicators, when staff spend days compiling reports in Excel, or when leaders want live results against targets. Our M&E MIS can take in Kobo and ODK data, so existing forms keep working.
DHIS2 is widely used for health information and routine health reporting, and it suits health programmes that report into the Ministry of Health. Programmes that span sectors, manage logframes for several donors, or need project, budget and beneficiary tracking often need a system built around their own results framework. The two can work together: 360Ground’s COVID-19 rapid response platform integrated with the Ministry of Health’s DHIS2 for live outbreak reporting.
Cost depends on the number of projects, indicators and users, offline mobile needs, integrations with Kobo, ODK, DHIS2 or your ERP, hosting, languages and the support period. Because 360Ground owns the core system, you pay for set-up, configuration and support rather than building from scratch. After a short demo and review of your results framework, we send an itemised proposal in birr, or in the currency your grant requires.
Yes. We respond to EOIs, RFQs and RFPs for consultancy services for the design and development of M&E systems and results-based project MIS, with a technical proposal covering requirements, methodology, work plan, team and relevant references. We have delivered national systems against formal RFPs, including the Ethiopian Statistics Service’s electronic market information system, and we provide deployment, training and support after go-live.
