Don’t Just Claim Impact.
Prove It.
Donors demand evidence, not just stories. We provide third-party validation using Social Return on Investment (SROI) methodologies to quantify the exact economic value your project creates.
The “Old Way”
- ❌ Self-reported “success stories” without data backing.
- ❌ Measuring activities (trainings held) instead of outcomes (income rose).
- ❌ “We spent ₹1Cr and helped 500 people” (Is that good?).
- ❌ No baseline data to prove change happened.
The Impexus Way
- ✅ Third-Party Verification for credibility.
- ✅ Economic Valuation of social change.
- ✅ “Every ₹1 invested generated ₹4.20 in social value.”
- ✅ Rigorous Pre/Post Analysis (Difference-in-Differences).
Economic Valuation (SROI)
Donors speak the language of ROI. We translate your social impact into financial terms using the globally recognized Social Return on Investment framework.
1. Map Outcomes
We don’t just count “wells built.” We measure the outcome: “Women saved 2 hours/day.”
2. Assign Value
Using financial proxies (e.g., minimum wage x hours saved), we calculate the monetary value of that time.
3. Calculate Ratio
Total Social Value / Total Investment = SROI Ratio. A ratio of 3:1 means 3x value created.
The Value Equation
SROI Ratio: 3.5 : 1
For every rupee invested, your project generated ₹3.50 in value for the community. This is the metric that secures your next grant.
Visualizing Your Logic
Inputs
Resources invested (Money, Staff, Time).
Outputs
Direct deliverables (Training sessions, Kits distributed).
Outcomes
Short-term changes (Knowledge gained, Behavior change).
Impact
Long-term societal shift (Reduced poverty, Healthier community).
The Evaluation Cycle
Baseline Study (Day 0)
We survey the community before you start to establish benchmarks. You cannot prove impact without knowing where you started.
Midline Evaluation (Mid-Project)
A “health check” to see if you are on track. We identify what’s working and where to pivot strategies.
Endline Impact Assessment (Project Close)
The final verdict. We compare Endline vs. Baseline data to scientifically prove the change attributable to your intervention.
Unlocking CSR Funding with Data
A livelihood NGO was struggling to renew their CSR grant because they only had “stories” of success. Impexus conducted a rigorous Endline Impact Assessment.
We proved that beneficiary income increased by 42% (inflation-adjusted) compared to a control group. We visualized this in a professional Impact Report.
Result: The corporate donor not only renewed the grant but increased funding by 30% based on the verified evidence.
Common Questions
How long does an assessment take?
Typically 4-6 weeks. This includes tool design, field data collection, analysis, and report generation.
Do you use digital tools?
Yes. We use ODK/mWater for 100% digital data collection, ensuring GPS verification and higher data accuracy than paper surveys.
Is this expensive?
Evaluation is an investment, not a cost. A strong impact report can yield 10x returns in future funding. We tailor the scope to fit your budget.
