Who we are

A reference firm for evidence, evaluation and digital solutions.

Since 2014, Broadline has delivered evidence-based services to governments, development partners, multilateral institutions and humanitarian pooled funds operating in challenging and data-scarce environments — under one accountable team of senior researchers.

Our practice sits at the intersection of survey science, evaluation methodology and applied data engineering — held under one roof so clients move from research question to validated data to a documented evidence base without managing fragmented timelines.

Sectors

Where we have active depth.

Eight sectors of active engagement, with health called out as our lead sector — concentrated in Tanzania and Kenya. Each sector is anchored in the indicator frameworks, sampling traditions and standards in use across donor and government programming.

Where we work

Resident in three markets, partnered across the region.

Tanzania, Kenya and Somalia are the three markets we are resident in — registered offices, local staff, established enumerator networks. Beyond these three, we deliver through a partner network in Ethiopia and Rwanda.

From the founder
What clients can expect from a Broadline engagement is a defensible study, run in the field, with clean data, replicable code and a written report that an external evaluator could audit.
