Evaluation research template

Evaluation study Kanban template

A board for evaluation work where theory, indicators, primary data, secondary data, triangulation, stakeholder review, and recommendations all have to stay connected.

Built for evidence streams, not simple tasks

Evaluation projects often have theory, fieldwork, administrative data, stakeholder interpretation, and reporting happening in overlapping cycles. This board gives each stream a visible place.

Connect theory to evidence

Keep outcomes, indicators, data sources, and assumptions close to the tasks that produce evidence.

Track mixed evidence

Separate primary data collection from MI, secondary data, document review, and analysis work.

Manage review cycles

Make stakeholder interpretation, report review, recommendations, and final sign-off explicit.

The workflow columns

The template follows an evaluation study from design through evidence synthesis and recommendations.

Setup

Evaluation scope, objectives, stakeholders, evidence needs, and governance.

Theory Design

Theory of change, logic model, outcomes, mechanisms, and assumptions.

Framework Dev

Evaluation questions, indicators, data sources, tools, and analysis plan.

Data Collection

Interviews, surveys, observations, case studies, and fieldwork logistics.

MI/Secondary Data

Management information, admin data, monitoring returns, and document review.

Triangulation

Compare evidence streams, test claims, resolve contradictions, and build findings.

Reporting

Findings, recommendations, review cycles, stakeholder feedback, and final outputs.

Complete

Final deliverables, learning logs, archive, and follow-up actions.

Where Pro helps evaluation teams

Evaluation projects often involve more stakeholders and parallel evidence streams than a normal task board can comfortably hold.

Free starter board

  • Open the evaluation workflow instantly
  • Track tasks across design, collection, triangulation, and reporting
  • Use comments, tags, priorities, timers, and exports

Pro evaluation control

  • Unlimited boards for workstreams or programmes
  • RACI ownership for client, evaluator, data lead, analyst, and approver
  • Gantt planning and analytics for milestones and bottlenecks

Common questions

Can I adapt this to a logic model?

Yes. Use tasks and tags for outcomes, assumptions, risks, evidence sources, and indicators.

Can I track multiple data sources?

Yes. Use the data collection and secondary data columns to keep evidence streams visible before triangulation.

Can stakeholders use it?

Yes. In Pro, you can add stakeholders as team members and use RACI to clarify responsibility and sign-off.

Open the evaluation workflow now

Start with the study structure in place, then add Pro when ownership and evidence streams need tighter control.
