Momentum
Development partners and government agencies often lack consistent, data-driven tools to assess and strengthen organisational capacity across their portfolios. Momentum is an End-to-End Organisational Capacity Development Management tool Built in Microsoft 365, Momentum automates every step from assessment to transformation tracking.
Momentum goes beyond assessment, it manages transformation
o Captures a baseline of organisational performance
o Delivers a comprehensive report across key functional areas
o Presents a clear, metric-driven dashboard of current capabilities
o Identifies current capabilities in sustainability management, emissions tracking, and reporting on non-financial measures
Automatically generates a tailored transformation roadmap to address identified capacity development needs
The process scales easily across portfolios, giving development partners and ministries a consistent, comparable view of capacity-development progress across multiple organisations.
