Services
If you are a Public Administration or an organisation working in the social field, we offer you a specialised consulting to provide better services to people. How can we help you?
Planning and management of European funds
We provide guidance in the design and planning of European funds in the social field. These include, on the one hand, the European Structural and Investment Funds, such as the European Social Fund (ESF) and the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and, on the other hand, the Next Generation Funds. One example is the Recovery and Resilience Facility and its components 22 and 23, for which we offer special advice. We work on topics related to programming and planning. This comprises services like diagnosis of needs, definition of objectives, measures, operations, indicators, performance framework, design of programmes and projects, etc. Furthermore, we design control mechanisms, management, and verification. We have a wide experience in the design and management of Community programmes (European calls) such as the EaSI programme.
Design and planning of public policies
We offer technical assistance in the design and planning of public policies using strategic plans and policy strategies. We collect evidence to generate situational diagnoses, to identify the social problems or challenges and to recommend solutions. We also cover reform processes of social policies and of social services to combat current social challenges. To this end, we conduct studies and diagnoses, and we design participative methodologies as well as digital tools to analyse multiple data sources.
Strategic consulting, innovation, and experimentation
We deliver strategic consulting to public institutions and social organisations to design, manage and evaluate experimental projects. The objective is to test or escalate innovative solutions to combat social problems or challenges. We conduct social entities in their transformation processes offering support and advice in the elaboration of strategic plans.
Studies and evaluations
We carry out studies and evaluations oriented to understand the reality and the social needs. The evidence collected from the process will grant the design of better social policies, services, or programmes. Different social research methodologies, qualitative and quantitative, are used to deepen the knowledge of social problems, for example, in the needs and rights of vulnerable groups, in the Spanish and European public policies and in the ecosystem of social entities. We have an extensive network for the development of field work.
Support to organisational reforms and to the implementation of quality systems
We assist and provide technical assistance in organisational development of social institutions and organisations. Our services include organisational reforms, reorganisation of services, protocolisation and standardisation of processes and procedures for the attention of people, implementation of quality and risk management systems, etc.
Technical secretariats, partnership, and sustainability
We offer consulting, technical assistance and technical secretariat services for the development of innovative initiatives that require the participation of multiple actors. We have vast experience fostering multi-actor spaces of collaboration through debates, reflection, and training. They require the creation of new ideas and knowledge from an extensive context variety. We also provide strategic consulting for the articulation of partnerships and for the development of sustainable strategies. For that, processes of strategic reflection, training and knowledge management on sustainability and public-private partnership formulas are needed.
Solutions for training, eLearning, and knowledge management
We provide consulting and technical assistance to the design and development of strategies related to training and knowledge management of social professionals. For this purpose, we use eLearning and bLearning methodologies that will enable the development of new competences (upskilling) in the work teams. Additionally, we support the momentum and development of learning communities.
