Ministry Support and Integration Purpose of the Consolidation Model Contextually appropriate programme by a National office that utilises multiple funding types and sources in one program design, one budget, one report and one evaluation, allowing for greater efficiencies and leading to increased impact on the well being of children.
Ministry Support and Integration Description of the Consolidated Model A fully integrated programme of multiple types and funding sources Simultaneous and full application of the following change processes across a number of programmes in a National Office: LEAP 3 Shared and efficient use of core number of high-caliber management and technical staff Common and efficient business processes in DME, finance, sponsorship management, procurement, etc. Each Technical Programme across the Area Programmes has one consolidated: Design Budget for which SOs commit funding with exceptions to grant funding Report with disaggregated data for specific donor/SO contributions Contextualised by the National Office
Ministry Support and Integration Unpacking the Non-Negotiables One overall semi-annual and annual report with a breakdown of data for contributing SOs National Office CWB report, as per Partnership standards Contribution to CWB and ability to report based on evidence On-going monitoring and reporting of individual RC and follow up Meeting Partnership-level customer service standards One-to-One nature of Sponsorship Adapting Technical Programme in local communities Community ownership with engagement of local partners and volunteers Local ownership and sustainability in communities Specific requirements of grant and PNS donors are fully met Financial and progress report speak to the specific contribution of the SOs/Donors Partnership standards in finance, audit, and external reporting are fully met Fiduciary requirements to the donors are met
Ministry Support and Integration Consolidation Pilot Objectives 1. Identify the effectiveness measures of contribution to CWB (both at individual RC and at community levels) in comparison to the baseline 2. Determine the efficiency measures of the consolidated model, in terms of cost and time in comparison to the baseline 3. Determine if the pilot can meet the common fiduciary requirements including sponsorship customer relations and reporting as per the requirements 4. Determine what conditions can the consolidated model be applied in other National offices
Ministry Support and Integration Consolidation Pilot Selection Criteria CriteriaReason Demonstrated DME, Sponsorship and Technical capacity Responsibly transition to LEAP 3 Strong monitoring system is required to disaggregate data and report for contributing SO’s Capacity is required to adapt the consolidated model to one’s context Deployment of Horizon 3 Readiness for LEAP 3 LEAP 3 enables scale-up of technical programmes Allows for immediate start of the pilot in FY16 Number of SOs involved Engagement of SO’s representing various sizes and geographic regions is important to fully understand the implications for the SO’s Number of funding streams Various funding streams are able to leverage one another and is part of the proposed model Size of the NO Certain size of the NO allows for lessons from the pilot to be generalized across the Partnership Willingness of the NO and RO leadership NO ownership and RO support is critical as consolidated model is a major commitment
Ministry Support and Integration 8 Introduction - Honduras Programmes 5 Clusters 28 ADPs $19 M budget Supported by 7 SOs with PNS and grants Strategic Priorities MCH Education Livelihood Security WASH Technical Approaches and Programmes Two Technical Approaches: 1) Strengthening resilience in children, families and communities and 2) Strengthening local and national structures in CWB One Technical Programme addressing both Why WV Honduras was chosen? The need for a larger scale in the pilot The larger number of SOs involved Context and infrastructure makes replicating to other NOs feasible
Ministry Support and Integration 9 Introduction – Sri Lanka Programmes 1 Cluster – Central Province 8 ADPs $3.7 M budget Supported by 7 SOs with PNS and grants Strategic Priorities MCH Education WASH Livelihood Securities Technical Approaches and Programmes TA and TP for each Strategic Priority Each TP will be implemented in the Cluster The Cluster will turn into an Area Programme Why WV Sri Lanka was chosen? To pilot Cluster-wide Larger number of SOs involved Context and infrastructure makes replicating to other NOs feasible
