Case Study: From one to three: How a 50-year-old INGO decentralized

Humentum supported ICRW through their decentralizing their organizational structure, moving from one headquarters located in the U.S. to a regional networked model.

Every engagement employs our BRIDGE Methodology

The BRIDGE Methodology is Humentum’s proven, repeatable approach that helps solve your challenge and produce visible results.

Tested with single organizations, networks of NGOs, and funders, the process accompanies leaders and staff to build capacity for better decision-making under pressure and thriving during complex organizational change.

What we’ve learned from working with thousands of organizations is that they often jump into the designing responses phase without first making sense of the broader environment. BRIDGE changes that by building common understanding first. The result? A stronger outcome that is pressure tested and has better stakeholder alignment.

Ann Warner ICRW

The Humentum consultants assigned to this project had decades of combined experience in accountability and auditing frameworks, with deep expertise in Value for Money (VfM) approaches in the UK development sector. They instilled a strong sense of confidence in all stakeholders that they could implement the frameworks and worked effectively across cultures.

Sheila Chanani, GFEMS

Humentum’s report and presentation on USG Compliance were done concisely and clearly so that any stakeholder could easily digest them across our offices in Kenya and Indonesia. The work with Humentum opened up a great conversation within our team that can continue beyond finance and procurement.

Lauren Van Enk, World Vision

We heard from our larger partners — our quintessential recipient, if you will — that they needed help with how to manage finances professionally. Many have also grown, so they need additional skills, structure, and processes. We knew this was something Humentum had expertise with.

Nicky LeRoux Senior Program Officer, Ford Foundation

I think there is a value in getting somebody to look externally at your systems and processes, how to be prepared or how to improve your chances of accessing and managing funding. I definitely feel, based on our experience, there's a value to that.
