For international partners
The Pakistan partner you are already looking for.
Donors have spent years committing to route more funding and more leadership through national organisations. The constraint has never been willingness — it is finding a national firm that can carry the compliance, the field system and the audit trail. 14 of our assignments have already been delivered that way, from 13 offices.
What we bring to a consortium
Field capacity you cannot fly in.
13 offices, each with standing programme officers for IT, quality assurance and monitoring. A vetted enumerator roster including female enumerators for girls' schooling and household work. Field protocols developed over two decades. And a working relationship with the same departments a programme will have to report to.
We have delivered 9 assignments as the local partner to an international prime, and 14 in total through primes and bilateral agencies.

Three ways to work together
Sub-consultant, joint venture, or prime.
We are equally willing to sit under a prime, to form a joint venture, or to lead. What changes is who carries the contract — not the standard of the work.
-
As sub-consultant
You hold the contract and the technical lead; FAME delivers instrument design, field operations, data management and quality assurance. This is the model behind most of the partnership assignments on the record.
-
As joint venture partner
Shared technical leadership and shared risk, with FAME carrying the Pakistan-facing obligations — government liaison, field logistics, local compliance and language.
-
As prime, with you as technical partner
FAME holds the contract and the local accountability; an international partner brings specialist technical input. Increasingly what financiers want to see, and the shape the localisation agenda is pushing towards.
