EvalPointe provides a range of consulting and training services in public health, tailored to meet the needs of our clients. Our key service areas include:

 

Strategic Planning

Effective strategy is critical for any health initiative. In our strategic planning services, we guide organizations in answering three fundamental questions: Are we meeting our goals and objectives, and fulfilling our mission and vision? Is our performance effective in achieving the proposed goals? Are we using efficient approaches and strategies in line with the available resources? By working through these questions, EvalPointe helps clients clarify their direction, measure their performance, and align resources for maximum impact. Our strategic planning support enables health programs and organizations to set clear priorities and make informed decisions that drive success.

 

Special Surveys, Monitoring & Evaluation (M&E)

We conduct specialized surveys and provide end-to-end monitoring and evaluation services to assess and improve health programs. EvalPointe’s team can design robust studies, perform rigorous data analysis, and present findings in clear, actionable formats. We employ advanced techniques such as Geographic Information System (GIS) mapping to identify disease “hot spots” and visualize data. Our consultants also manage all aspects of field research – from securing ethics approval and recruiting study personnel to training staff and supervising data collection. Through our M&E services, clients gain accurate insights into program performance and evidence-based recommendations for improvement.

 

Public Health Education (Training)

Building local capacity through education is a cornerstone of our work. EvalPointe offers applied, competency-based public health training programs tailored to organizations and communities. We conduct interactive training seminars and workshops led by seasoned public health professionals, targeting both individuals and groups. Key course offerings include health systems research methods, effective scientific writing and publication skills, grant proposal writing, governance and leadership in health, as well as monitoring and evaluation techniques. Our training sessions emphasize practical skills and real-world applications, empowering healthcare workers and program managers to implement best practices independently and with confidence.

 

Public Health Surveillance

EvalPointe provides expert support to strengthen public health surveillance and epidemic response systems. We offer technical advice and capacity building for Integrated Disease Surveillance and Response (IDSR), helping health authorities improve their ability to detect, report, and respond to disease outbreaks. Our team also guides organizations in complying with International Health Regulations (IHR 2005) and advancing their Global Health Security goals. In addition, we assist countries with Joint External Evaluations (JEE) of national health security—assessing preparedness and identifying gaps in areas such as laboratory systems, emergency response, and workforce development. Through these services, EvalPointe helps clients enhance early warning systems and overall health security at local and national levels.

 

Supply Chain Management Systems

Efficient supply chain management is vital for ensuring that health services have the supplies they need, when they need them. EvalPointe supports clients in planning, procuring, distributing, and managing essential medical products and commodities. We provide guidance on establishing robust supply chain management systems that facilitate smooth coordination of medicines, vaccines, and consumables. Our consultants help optimize operations—streamlining procurement processes, improving inventory management, and reducing bottlenecks—so that critical health supplies are continuously available and delivered seamlessly to hospitals, clinics, and communities. By strengthening supply chain systems, we reduce stock-outs and improve the reliability of healthcare delivery on the ground.

Over the years, EvalPointe has implemented a variety of impactful projects, reflecting our ability to adapt to different public health challenges and client needs. Our portfolio showcases our commitment to quality, collaboration, and tangible results. 

Examples of our work include:

  • Program Evaluations: We have evaluated national health programs – for example, assessing the effectiveness of tuberculosis and HIV/AIDS interventions – to identify successes, pinpoint gaps, and provide actionable recommendations for policymakers. These evaluations help ensure that resources are used effectively and that programs are adjusted to better serve affected communities.


  • Health Policy and Strategy Development: EvalPointe has facilitated the development of strategic plans and health policies for government agencies and NGOs. By leading inclusive planning processes and leveraging evidence-based insights, we’ve helped organizations create clear roadmaps for improving health services and outcomes at the national and regional levels.


  • Public Health Training Initiatives: We have designed and delivered numerous training workshops for healthcare professionals and program managers. Topics have ranged from epidemiological data analysis and disease surveillance techniques, to scientific writing for publication and grant proposal development. These capacity-building projects have strengthened the skills of local health workers and enriched the knowledge base of institutions we support.


  • Surveillance and Health Security Assessments: Our team has assisted countries in evaluating and upgrading their disease surveillance and emergency response systems. Notably, we have provided support for Joint External Evaluations of health security capacities, helping national stakeholders to understand their preparedness for public health emergencies and to plan improvements aligned with international standards.


  • Supply Chain Optimization Projects: EvalPointe has worked on projects aimed at enhancing the healthcare supply chain. We have helped health facilities and supply units implement better inventory tracking, logistics planning, and distribution strategies. As a result, our clients have seen reduced stockouts and more reliable delivery of medicines and medical supplies to even the most remote areas.


Through these and other projects, EvalPointe has built a strong reputation for delivering results-driven solutions. Our clients and partners include health ministries, international organizations, and non-governmental organizations across the region. We take pride in collaborating closely with local stakeholders on every project, ensuring that interventions are culturally appropriate and sustainable. Each success in our portfolio translates into stronger health systems and healthier communities, reinforcing our mission to make a positive, lasting impact in public health.
