Evidence standard
Every finding carries its source
The Outlook separates what is known from what is observed and what is still being collected. Each finding is labelled with one of five source classes.
Patterns observed across NPMTI forums and diagnostics, aggregated, anonymised and with consent.
Research contributed by Knowledge & Research Partners, credited to them.
Results of the Outlook survey, published with sample size and method.
Questions the Outlook will answer once the data exists. Marked as such, never estimated.
Method
Method
The methodology, survey design and ethics statement are published before data collection opens. No institution's individual result is published without its written authorisation.

Africa Project Delivery Casebook™
Cases from real programmes: what happened, why, and what the next one can learn. The Outlook draws on the cases; the cases stand on their own.
Each case is published with the written consent of the institutions concerned and of any person named.
Separate record
Africa Project Legacy Registry™
Not a report and not part of the Outlook: a public record of delivered projects whose evidence has been independently reviewed. The Outlook reports only aggregated findings from these reviews, published with consent, in its chapter on value and benefits realisation.
Submissions are reviewed free of charge. A PPVSR™ or any other paid NPMTI service is neither required nor an advantage.
Recognition, including the Project Stewardship Hall of Fame™, is kept separate from the research, so that no finding depends on an honour.
