Our Operational Model :

Connecting Knowledge, Policy, and Practice

At Fenot Associates,

We don't just produce reports; we catalyze systemic change. Our operational model is built on the belief that for health systems to transform, there must be a seamless bridge between scientific evidence and the daily reality of policy implementation. We operate at the intersection of global research standards and local context, ensuring that every solution we co-design with our partners is technically rigorous, culturally fluent, and institutionally sustainable.

Process Flow

The 3-Step "Fenot Way"

Phase 1:

Co-Design & Embedded Partnership

We don't consult from a distance. We embed our technical experts within the Ministry of Health and Regional Bureaus. By sitting side-by-side with government leaders, we identify the real-world bottlenecks that academic studies often miss.

Phase 2:

Multidisciplinary Evidence Generation

We use advanced tools like Data Triangulation and Systems Thinking to synthesize information from fragmented sources (e.g., DHIS2 and EPSS). This creates a "single source of truth" that all stakeholders can trust.

Phase 3:

Institutionalization & Scaling

Our goal is to work ourselves out of a job. We build permanent tools—like the National Effective Coverage Guide and e-PSIRLS—and train local Scientific Advisory Panels to use them. This ensures the system continues to improve long after our initial engagement.

Opportunities and Careers..

Our Core Methodologies

Systems Thinking (ST)

We analyze the health system as a whole, understanding how a change in financing (HCF) impacts clinical quality and supply chain efficiency.

Technology Integration​(TI)

We prioritize digital innovation, moving systems from paper-based reporting to real-time, integrated digital dashboards that drive accountability.

Evidence-to-Policy Translation​

 Through the IQ-RAC and RMNCAH Research Advisory Council, we facilitate the high-level dialogues necessary to turn data into national implementation manuals.

Monitoring, Evaluation & Learning

We use continuous feedback loops to refine strategies in real-time, ensuring that "Implementation Fidelity" is maintained across all regions.
The " Secret Sauce "

Bridging the Gap Between USA and Ethiopia.

With offices in both the USA and Ethiopia, Fenot Associates offers a unique dual perspective. We bring Global Standards (scientific rigor, international best practices, and academic links like Harvard) and combine them with Local Fluency (deep understanding of Ethiopia’s administrative structures, language, and community needs). This ensures our solutions aren't just "good on paper"—they are effective in practice.
