Institute of Analytics and Advocacy

What Institute of Analytics and Advocacy does

The Institute of Analytics and Advocacy (IAA) is a Ukrainian non-profit analytical center founded in 2013 and headquartered in Poltava, Ukraine. The organization operates three functional pillars: Advocacy (digitalization of public services and infrastructure including e-TTN, e-CMR, DREAM, PoltavaSmartCity, and prior contributions to the Prozorro procurement system), Analytics (policy research, post-war reconstruction analysis, IMF program monitoring, public debt and customs reform research), and a Resource Center (training programs such as Good Governance: just do it, Theory of Big Changes, Analytics Intensive, and the Youth CSO Mentorship Program). IAA's analytical outputs cover reconstruction practices from 18+ countries, with publication cadence extending through 2026 and annual reports dating back to 2015.

IAA's technology footprint centers on digital public infrastructure rather than commercial software. Its core technology contribution is administrative and implementation support for state digital systems: IAA served as administrator of the e-TTN electronic consignment note system (mandatory for road freight transport), developed the e-CMR international waybill roadmap, and is a partner in the DREAM state reconstruction management ecosystem. Additional platforms include PoltavaSmartCity (a regional smart-city coordination information ecosystem) and the Retail Price Register public dashboard. The organization's research outputs are distributed free on its website and via social channels (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter/X, YouTube, Telegram).

IAA's business model is grant-funded NGO work. Revenue is derived from international donor and foundation project grants (EU, USAID, UK Dev, GIZ, UNDP, DANIDA, German Marshall Fund, International Renaissance Foundation, Open Society Foundations) and from participation in multi-organization consortia (RRR4U, Re:Ukraine, RISE Ukraine). The organization does not sell commercial products or charge fees for services; outputs are free to beneficiaries. Customer and partner base is dominated by Ukrainian government authorities (national ministries, local government), Ukrainian CSOs, and international donor agencies. IAA has approximately 10 employees, operates NGO-style governance, and is not publicly listed.
