Read about our methodology and team.
What our proposals include
When we respond to a request for SBCC consultancy services, our technical proposal normally includes our understanding of the assignment and context, a proposed methodology with justification, a detailed workplan and timeline, roles and CVs of the team, relevant experience, and risk and quality assurance measures. Our financial proposal follows the client's template, with clear daily rates, number of days and other costs.
We aim to be realistic. If a timeline or budget looks too tight for good quality work, we say so and suggest alternatives, such as phasing or narrowing the scope, rather than over-promising.
From contract to inception
Once contracted for SBCC consultancy services, we start with an inception meeting to confirm objectives, priorities, stakeholders and logistics. We then prepare an inception report that refines the methodology, tools and workplan. This step is important for SBCC consultancy services because it is the moment to align expectations and adjust the approach before fieldwork begins.
Throughout the assignment we provide regular updates, flag risks early and share draft outputs for review. At the end, we hold a validation or handover session so that the client team understands the results and can act on them.
Compliance and policies
Across all our SBCC consultancy services, we comply with client policies on safeguarding, data protection, anti-fraud and conflict of interest, and we brief all team members and associates on them. [PLACEHOLDER: add links to Praxis SBCC policies once published, such as safeguarding and data protection policies.] Contracts, invoices and payments follow the client's procurement rules.
Small and urgent assignments
Not every need fits a full procurement process. We also provide short, focused SBCC consultancy services, such as reviewing a strategy, giving feedback on materials, designing a research tool, or facilitating a one-day workshop. For urgent needs, such as an emergency response, we can often start within days. Contact us to discuss what is possible under your organization's procurement rules.
Budgets and value for money
We price our SBCC consultancy services transparently, with daily rates, number of days by team member, and direct costs such as travel, translation and venue hire listed separately. Where budgets are limited, we suggest options, for example combining remote and in-country work, using existing data, or phasing an assignment. We are happy to work within donor cost norms and to explain how each part of the budget supports quality.
