Performance Measurement & Impact

Understanding Data, Improving Performance

Measuring performance is critical to the success of any organization. Indeed, businesses that harness data to improve operations are more likely to achieve commercial success. As the WDI Performance Measurement and Impact team (PMI) we design and implement context-specific measurement tools and learning processes for both for-profit businesses and non-profit organizations in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). These processes are iterative and evolve from the early design phase to a fully scaled operation. Our team specializes in applying multidimensional assessment, while also integrating business indicators, to create unique insights into the effectiveness, sustainability and scalability of our partners.

By applying qualitative and quantitative methods, we measure complex impacts—from household income to women’s empowerment to children’s well-being. We also collaborate with and train business and non-profit leaders to design and implement solutions in assessment and continuous improvement. We take pride in helping our partners develop their measurement systems and capabilities, rooted in the latest proven methodologies.
