UpMetrics' impact measurement and management methodology helps you identify the data you should collect to understand, evaluate and demonstrate your impact - also known as your Impact Framework.
This framework is then used to operationalize and evaluate the tangible changes that arise from your activities, making it a critical tool for informing, testing and implementing your strategy.
We'll guide you through the design of your Impact Framework, enabling you to accurately measure performance and community contribution across your primary impact themes.
Use customizable data capture tools and integrations to collect, consolidate, and normalize all relevant data in one centralized location.
Understand impact data and track ongoing progress towards organizational goals, and against industry benchmarks, with user-friendly dashboards that update in real-time.
Use dashboards and other data visualizations to drive effective decision-making, simplify reporting, demonstrate outcomes across key performance metrics, and more effectively tell your story of impact.
Within the Define stage of our DeCAL methodology, UpMetrics will help you to develop a strategic and effective Impact Framework, which enables you to define and operationalize how you measure and communicate your social or environmental impact.
In alignment with your organization's Vision, Mission, Values, and Impact Themes, for each impact theme we'll help you define 2 levels of measurement - performance and community contribution.
At the performance level, we'll help you organize your delivery model to have the greatest impact on your beneficiaries. What you do for your beneficiaries is your contribution to the community contribution. There are 4 key dimensions mapped to Performance measures:
For each of these 4 performance dimensions we'll define specific objectives and Key Impact Indicators (KIIs).
Impact is a collective effort.
With a lens of contribution (vs. attribution) we'll help you define community-level objectives, and Key Impact Indicators (KIIs) per objective, to track within each impact theme to support your program strategy and execution.
In addition to the UpMetrics platform, our social sector experts will become an extension of your team, providing strategic guidance and support throughout your engagement with us, as well as hands-on execution of some key deliverables, including:

Partnering with UpMetrics has made our impact analysis work possible. This information is essential in our normal, daily operations but even more critical during this time of crisis. With impact data, we are able to quickly identify needs and respond to support the local community.
We wanted to be able to know that we were making an impact, and we wanted to be learning with grantees and the community.
Ultimately, our partnership with UpMetrics supports our grantees’ ongoing learning, which in turn enables them to share more meaningful information and insights with us in place of traditional reporting.
Working with UpMetrics has been such a smooth process. The sales and data team have been responsive to our unique needs, and have allowed multiple opportunities for feedback. This has resulted in a more individualized product and experience.
UpMetrics provides a data-driven approach to understanding the collective community impact that is being accomplished by our grantees.
The ability to send metrics dashboards to investors without having to recreate them from scratch each time has been a game-changer.
The UpMetrics team has been instrumental in helping us make surveys that are consistent so that we can use them year over year without recreating. The time saved has allowed us to concentrate more on our work with our Fellows and stakeholders.
ICU baby is doing critical work for the community. I am going to be able to do so much more for our community with access to these numbers. The dashboards and ease of accessibility to the data is so impressive.
