»Hand in hand.«
To support eHealth Africa with the implementation of its results framework the informatics team conceptualized a digital tool, which made the process of defining the result matrix for eHealth Africas projects across departments easier, unified and accessible to everyone.
Historically every project team had its own way to plan and evaluate, making it difficult for management to strategically plan and monitor across departments. There was also a lack of transparency and insights for individual employees, as the organization and the number of individual initiatives grew.
The challenge facing all teams was to collectively define and assess the requisite criteria and specifications for an organizational digital results framework, as there were no existing digital tools available in the market that could be readily adopted or serve as learning references.
Collaboratively and incrementally we shaped the tools for setting up a results framework that would fit to our organization's needs.
AYA was born.
A results framework typically consists of several key components:
Goals and Objectives:
These are the overarching aims and specific, measurable objectives that an organization or project aims to achieve.
Outputs:
These are the tangible, quantifiable products, services, or deliverables that result from the activities undertaken to achieve the objectives.
Outcomes:
Outcomes are the broader changes or effects that occur as a result of the outputs. They are showing a progression of changes over time.
Indicators:
Indicators are specific, measurable, and observable variables or metrics used to assess progress toward achieving objectives and outcomes.
