Case story
Strengthening governance and internal systems
Institutional Development · South Sudan
Illustrative engagement. Based on GMI’s capability model — read the note on our work.
The challenge
Organisations that grew quickly often carry donor obligations their governance documents were never written to meet — no risk register, informal procurement, policies that exist but are not used.
Our approach
- Organisational capacity assessment covering structure, systems, skills and gaps, through document review, interviews and consultation.
- Governance manual, organisational structure, job descriptions and standard operating procedures drafted with the team, not for them.
- HR, finance, procurement and safeguarding policies adopted, with a risk register and performance management system.
- Skills and systems transferred so the client runs them without us.
Success is defined by the lasting capacity left behind — skills transferred and systems built for independent growth.
GMI core values
What changes
- Documents that match how the organisation actually works.
- Readiness for donor due diligence and audit.
- Capacity that stays after the assignment closes.
