OUR
BOTTOM LINE
IS impact

impact per $

Change Makers need to know which investments would yield the highest Impact per $ returns, That’s where we come in.

A new way to predict and measure the impact returns per $ invested using systemic problem analysis

In a nutshell

A new way to predict and measure the impact returns per $ invested using systemic problem analysis

Key Features

Quantifying impact returns
Rigorous use of data and evidence
System Analysis at the core
Impact expressed directly in terms of social or environmental value
A unified measure of impact that can be compared across different investments with different direct outcomes

Standard Approach (e.g., IMM)

Quantifying impact returns
Rigorous use of data and evidence
System Analysis at the core
Impact expressed directly in terms of social or environmental value
A unified measure of impact that can be compared across different investments with different direct outcomes

The System-Based Approach

Quantifying impact returns
Rigorous use of data and evidence
System Analysis at the core
Impact expressed directly in terms of social or environmental value
A unified measure of impact that can be compared across different investments with different direct outcomes

Here is how it works

Map Complexity

Use System Mapping to create a complexity map of the problem: it’s causes and how they interact

Find pressure points

Use System Analysis to find the pressure points: root causes that can drive system level change

Calculate
impact per $

There is always a pressure point being affected,
and always a degree to which it is affecte

Potential I/$ Score can be expressed by:

Take a look under the hood:
Systemic Analysis

Example: the mobility challenge

Each root cause has a different systemic scope of influence

The Pressure Points are the root causes with the widest scope of influence

Calculating Impact per $

Introducing Impact Units

The first cross-outcome unified impact metric

An impact unit (I) is a unified measure of potential/actual impact that can be compared across different investments with different direct outcomes as long as they address the same problem

An impact unit expresses the number of people (or other unit) reached and the degree of change they experience on a unified scale that allows comparison between different kinds of outcomes

30% reduction in malaria incidence25% increase in employment

What makes this possible

Degree of change function

Impact units are calculated by first multiplying the number of people reached at terminal value by the Degree of Change (Doc) they experience

DoC is a function that can transform any direct outcome (e.g., number of people with jobs, number of malaria cases prevented) to a unified scale expressing the magnitude of the change from no impact to the highest achievable outcome

The DoC function shifts us from local, and incommensurable, metrics, to a unified % of problem solved scale which allows for comparison between different investments with different outcomes

Systemic Coefficient

The Systemic Coefficient adjusts the # of impact units up or down based on systemic considerations: how important is the affected pressure point? How well does the investment target the pressure point?

Thus, it allows comparison between very different outcomes by giving them different weight based on their systemic importance to solving the problem
