Impact Management & Measurement

All enterprises have positive and negative effects on people and the planet. Whether large multinational, fund, small business or not for profit, we support impact enterprise across the spectrum measure, manage and articulate their impact.

Our team has led some of the region’s key impact management and outcomes planning projects, including the whole-of-sector outcomes measurement framework with the WA Government in partnership with WACOSS; B-Lab B-Corp Consultant accreditation and certification support; the ongoing review for Woodside’s $20M Development Fund, as well as the $500M Cerberus Frontier Markets Fund.

We specialise in impact management projects requiring simple translation from complex cross-sector datasets, and adapting reporting methods based on nationally and international best practice frameworks and methodologies including:

• The UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’s)
• SDG Impact Framework
• The WA Outcomes Measurement Framework (OMFW)
• Global Impact Investing Network’s IRIS
• B-Lab Assessment (B-Corp certification process)
• Social Return on Investment (SROI)
• Impact Management Project (IMP)

In a rapidly growing and increasingly ‘noisy’ impact management arena our key values are:

1. We deliver best-practice and best-fit frameworks tailored to each client
2. A contextual approach to engagement, framework, communication strategy, and developing action-oriented impact management reports
3. Understanding the need for consistency for comparison, reporting and forecasting
4. Systemic and strategic impact management projects encompassing governance, employees, environment and community, considering whole of supply chain impact

If you’re looking to create an impact management framework, measure your impact and outcomes, or simply improve your positive impact through supply chain practices and procurement, please get in touch.
