Key Findings

  • Mathematica’s measurement and evaluation (M&E) approach and associated toolkit tailor learning in four phases to fuel evidence-based, innovation.
  • Evidence-based, innovation starts by identifying a need, problem, or challenge in partnership with a community in focus—the community whose goals should drive design. The M&E approach engages this community as collaborators throughout all phases of research and design.
  • Progress is not always linear. The evidence determines when a solution should move to the next phase, stay within a phase and continue development, or return to a prior phase.

Mathematica’s measurement and evaluation (M&E) approach and associated toolkit provide a road map for generating evidence about new or evolving solutions. This overview resource introduces four phases of evidence building and provides an illustrative example of this M&E approach in action.

Efficiency Meets Impact.
That's Progress Together.

Mathematica delivers action-ready evidence and insights, scalable data solutions, and real-time analytics that boost efficiency, strengthen accountability, and drive results.
