NGOs and field programmes
Move from field collection to programme reporting without rebuilding the evidence
Coordinate enumerators, collect in low-connectivity environments, monitor indicators and maintain accountability workflows from the same project structure.
Funded programmes do not end at data collection, they end at a donor report against a logframe. FlexiSurvey carries that whole arc in one project structure: prepare the instrument, languages, assignments and reporting framework; collect through controlled mobile assignments, offline where needed; supervise progress, sync status and site coverage; measure defined indicators from approved responses; respond to complaints and follow-up cases under the right procedure; and report a period-specific, traceable snapshot.
Because indicators read directly from live responses, disaggregation by sex, age, vulnerability or disability happens on its own, and targets, baselines and achievement-against-target travel with each indicator. Donor report templates for FCDO, FAO, ECHO, UN-OCHA and a generic logframe render a publication-ready PDF and matching Excel workbook from the live figures, frozen at generation so a re-download returns the exact numbers the donor first received. This is the discipline of MEAL, assembled in one governed system rather than stitched together from exports.
Who this is for
- International NGOs running household, beneficiary or baseline surveys
- Community health, nutrition and WASH programmes
- Monitoring & Evaluation teams reporting to donors on fixed indicator frameworks
- Field ops teams distributing work across enumerators in multiple regions
The pain we solve
If any of these sound familiar, FlexiSurvey was built with your team in mind.
Data stranded when devices lose signal
Forms that only work online leave enumerators stuck when connectivity drops, and paper backups create a second data-entry burden back at the office.
Responses attributed to the wrong enumerator or site
Without clean assignment and handover, records end up mislabelled, and fixing it later means digging through GPS and timestamps.
Languages change by region
One programme across several districts can need three or four languages. Juggling translations on paper or in separate apps invites errors.
Reporting to donors eats the week
Logframe indicators, cross-tabs by sub-group and completion by cluster, assembled by hand every reporting cycle from raw exports.
How FlexiSurvey fits
Capabilities we lean on hardest for this kind of work.
Collect offline on native apps
iOS and Android apps queue responses locally and sync as soon as signal returns, so enumerators can capture responses all day with no connectivity, each one held on the device until it syncs.
Assign and supervise across a roster
Assign surveys, sites and targets to enumerators, watch progress by person and site on a board, and reassign when someone leaves the team, without losing the responses they already captured. Respondents are surveyed in their own language while the underlying data stays canonical.
Measure indicators from approved data
Bind each indicator to the survey question that feeds it and let the platform compute results on a schedule, disaggregated by sub-group, with targets, baselines and achievement-against-target travelling with the indicator.
Respond and report, with accountability built in
Route complaints, safeguarding feedback and follow-up cases under the appropriate procedure, then render a period-specific donor report as PDF and Excel from the live figures. AI can draft a plain-language narrative grounded in the actual numbers, ready to edit.
Typical outcomes
What teams like yours usually report in the first few months.
Less re-entry between tools
Survey, indicator and report work in one place, so data is not re-keyed between a collection tool, a spreadsheet and a report.
Clearer assignment and earlier visibility
Live enumerator and site progress shows missing sites and unusual collection patterns before the team calls fieldwork done.
Traceable from report back to source
A reported figure traces back through its indicator and formula to the responses behind it, frozen per reporting period.
