BARSS for Haiti

Services

Five lines, scoped to a deliverable.

Every engagement opens with a written scope: the question, the sources we will reach, the thing you receive, and the date you receive it. No retainer runs without one. Most clients buy two or three lines together, which is the point of hiring one shop instead of four vendors.

Data

Data & Research

Most decisions about Haiti get made on a number somebody heard once. We go get the real one. Economic baselines, displacement and funding flows, entity and ownership research, sector and supply-chain mapping, or a custom dataset built to the shape of your program.

Everything comes with the source trail attached, so the number survives the first person who asks where it came from.

DeliverableResearch memo or dataset with method, source log, and the working files. Yours to reuse, not licensed back to you.
ForNGOs, funders, program designers, coalitions, newsrooms, researchers.
SourcesWorld Bank WDI, ICIJ Offshore Leaks, OFAC SDN, GDELT, HDX/HAPI, government and registry records, primary documents, field data you already hold.
Typical2–6 weeks.
Reporting

Impact Reporting

You ran the program. You have attendance sheets, receipts, photos, and a funder asking what changed. The gap between those two things is where most small organizations lose their next grant.

We build the measurement frame, clean and run whatever data you have, and produce the report... written to what the funder actually reads, not to what a template says. Then we hand you the template so the next cycle costs a fraction of this one.

DeliverableFinished report plus the cleaned dataset, the charts as reusable files, and a template for the next reporting cycle.
AlsoLive dashboards, annual reports, board decks, grant narratives, M&E frameworks.
ForGrantees, community organizations, social enterprises, program implementers.
Typical3–6 weeks. Retained per reporting cycle if you'd rather not think about it again.
Market

Market Research

Whether the thing works, before you spend on finding out. Market sizing, feasibility, willingness to pay, diaspora demand, competitive landscape, pricing, distribution, and the honest version of what it costs to reach the customer you have in mind.

You get a recommendation with a number on it. If the answer is don't, we say don't, and show the work that got there.

DeliverableMarket study: method, sources, sizing, scenarios, and a written go / no-go with the reasoning exposed.
ForSocial enterprises, cooperatives, investors, diaspora ventures, program designers.
CoversHaiti, the Caribbean, and diaspora markets in the US, Canada, and France.
Typical4–8 weeks depending on whether primary collection is needed.
Web

Web Design & Build

Sites that load on a phone on a bad connection, in the language your audience actually reads. Kreyòl, French, English... written, not run through a translation widget.

Built as static pages on a real design system, so the thing is fast, cheap to host, and impossible to break with a plugin update. You get the source, the domain, and the maintenance scripts. There is no CMS rent and no agency you have to call to change a phone number.

DeliverableLive site on your domain, plus the source repository, the design system, and the sweep scripts that let one person update every page at once.
IncludesDesign system, copywriting, intake and registration forms, donation routing, photo handling, deployment, handover training.
ForOrganizations, programs, campaigns, cooperatives, ventures.
Typical3–8 weeks. A single campaign or landing page is faster.
Advisory

Consulting & Systems

The structural problems that don't fit the other four lines. How the capital is stacked. Whether the partner is who they say they are. How money moves without tripping a designation. Why the whole operation still runs through one person's personal inbox and how to get it off there.

Scoped to the problem, priced to the problem, and finished when the problem is.

DeliverableScoped to the engagement: a structuring memo, a systems build, a diligence determination, a program design, or a documented process your team can run without us.
CoversCapital structuring, partner and counterparty diligence, operations and intake systems, program design, organizational data infrastructure.
ForAnyone stuck on something that isn't a report or a website.
TypicalProject or retained.

Pricing

Scoped and quoted individually.

Send the question and the deadline. You get a written scope with a fixed price inside three business days. No hourly surprises, no open-ended retainers, and reduced rates for community organizations and cooperatives... ask.
