Set Model Phase 1

The initial phase, an Environmental Scan and Baseline Study, lays the groundwork by mapping the socio-economic landscape and identifying the unique needs and assets of the community. This informed perspective is critical for tailoring the subsequent steps of the SET Process to acknowledging their current state and potential for growth.

Step 1: Environmental Scan & Baseline Study

Through a Competitor Analysis we examine the successful strategies of similarly sized corporations, drawing insightful comparisons. When setting inferred and explicit objectives, a Monitoring and Evaluation Process is established to evaluate the short term, medium-term, and long-term impacts on intended beneficiaries. This assessment also ensures that the set goals are compatible with community values, emphasizing sustainability and positive impact. We revisit the client’s needs to assess the gaps they aim to address and their ultimate desired outcomes. Engaging with the beneficiaries in the community is paramount. We interact with community members, leaders, and key organizations through interviews, surveys, and discussions with police, social workers, and other stakeholders. This comprehensive engagement helps us understand community needs and perspectives.
