Strengthening governance and internal systems
Institutional Development · South Sudan
A note on these pages. GMI was incorporated in October 2025. The engagements below are drawn from the capability model in our company profile and show exactly how the three pillars work together. Named client case studies will be published here as assignments complete and clients consent to publication.
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.
What changes
- Documents that match how the organisation actually works.
- Readiness for donor due diligence and audit.
- Capacity that stays after the assignment closes.
How we would run it for you
Every engagement follows the same six steps — understand the context, assess needs and capacity, design the response, deliver practical support, transfer skills and systems, review and learn. Scope, methods, roles, deliverables and indicators are agreed before work begins.
