Impact Assessment and Measurement
We measure, interpret, and enhance the effects generated by projects, programs, policies, and investments.
Open Impact conducts impact assessments for organizations that need solid data, verifiable models, and comparable outcomes.
We build measurement pathways capable of reconstructing what has changed, for whom, with what intensity, and with what value generated.
When useful, we also translate outcomes into economic and financial value to strengthen accountability, scenario comparison, and the quality of decisions.
What are we building?
Evaluation and methodological design
We build the methodological framework based on objectives, stakeholders, theory of change, expected outcomes, and evaluation questions. We define the necessary data and sources.
Evidence collection, analysis, and interpretation tools
We define tools, timelines, and collection rules to make the assessment robust, traceable, and defensible. We analyze quantitative and qualitative data, transforming them into evidence and insights useful for decision-making.
Impact accounting and monetization
When useful, we translate outcomes into economic value to strengthen comparability, accountability, and the quality of decisions, using methodologies such as Social Return on Investment.
How we work
Objectives and context analysis
We start from the mission, strategic priorities, stakeholders involved, and the decisions that the system will need to support.
Data Architecture
We establish what data is needed, who must collect it, with what frequency, through which tools, and under what rules.
Evidence Collection and Analysis
We define responsibilities, information sources, collection frequency, operating rules, and methods for updating data.
Delivery of Results for Decision-Making
We translate outcomes into reports, dashboards, scenarios, recommendations, and value indicators, so that the assessment guides concrete choices.
Evaluation is not a formal exercise.
Impact assessment is the intersection of knowledge, accountability, and decision-making.
It does not limit itself to producing indicators. It defines evaluation questions, reconstructs the logic of change, identifies relevant outcomes, collects evidence, and builds an interpretive framework useful for understanding what has truly changed.
When the context is complex, evaluation cannot be reduced to a simple reporting exercise: it must be designed with methodology, robust data, and appropriate tools.
