Understanding the Impact Potential of your Business Under Different Scenarios

 Although calculating and understanding the social impact of startups might seem hard, ImpactableX simplifies the process by availing an impact modeling methodology that yields standardized, quantified, and verified impact analytics. Our modeling framework seeks to specifically suit social entrepreneurs as well as their investors through an impact accelerator. ImpactableX offers a primary modeling framework that makes it possible for founders to assess the impact that would be caused by different scenarios. This framework also contributes to the making of management decisions that would help optimize impact and revenue generated. Our modeling framework applies to all business models, all vertical impact, and all stages of business development. As sales estimates and primary data evolve, the inputs on our modeling framework can also be revised to help understand the broader consequences.

The tactics used to approach impact assessment go beyond the stationary quantification of startup data. The approach espoused by ImpactableX provides consistent and centralized tools of impact management that evolve dynamically. When assessing impact, founders are guided through the foundational components of our framework to facilitate the generation of a personal impact model. Of the three business levers, we start by defining the essential impact metrics of the company. These are the measurable impact expressions that dictate the significant value proposition drivers for the company. After this, our prototype of impact assessment will streamline the metrics with universal standards such as SDGs. The objective of this streamlining is to ensure that everyone is measuring the same units and working towards achieving aligned goals.

On the attribution lever, we assess the contribution of the company to problems as compared to the standard. ImpactableX will calculate the changes that are uniquely attributable to the intervention of the company. At this point of assessing the impact of a business, we get insights into the efficacy of unit impact and total impact over some time, often five years. With detailed business analysis, management teams can understand the impact potential of their companies under different scenarios.

How Data Can Help assess the Social and Environmental Impact of your Business

 Impact data and metrics are fundamental to the understanding of whether any progress is being made towards achieving impact goals, proactive impact reporting to stakeholders, and enhancing impact performance. ImpactableX uses impact modeling technologies that generate the analytics and data needed by portfolio managers for the transparent and seamless tracking, analysis, and reporting of verified impact. ImpactableX approach makes it possible to compare impact potential in investments, compare impact performance to the market average, and give insight on the contribution of invested funds in the process of unlocking impact. The data that ImpactableX generates makes it possible for impact funds to bring forth insights that define the standards for impact measurement and management.

Portfolio analysis starts with identifying the outcomes and outputs that are a priority. The process continues by implementing standards and practices that best drive impact for the funds. After this ImpactableX builds a model of impact for every one of the companies to generate impact outputs that are certified and valuations that define the impact of the funds. Once a link between impact creation and revenue is established and certified, it becomes possible to do impact tracking as a financial reporting function. As your fund gathers regular reporting, our automated technology computes the impact earned by every company for the period. Once primary data is generated from a portfolio, ImpactableX computes the analytics that will differentiate the impact fund. Our team builds a unique dashboard for every supported fund.

xModeling is a unique methodology used by ImpactableX to set aside the business model levers that cause impact. Our team relies on comparable technologies and research to set the data points. After this, we refine and validate the data variables through the direct collection of primary data from places and people that have experienced this impact. Through impact assessment, our team helps founders to determine the variables that need validation in the xModels and collect the data required to achieve this. This data is fed into the xModel of the company to automatically come up with fresh analytics.
