Three tracks for what an organization needs to run, to have impact, and to last
Each track has its platforms, and each platform leaves outputs the organization keeps.
Institutional building
Raising the organization's readiness in governance, internal organization and compliance, so its performance rests on documented, auditable procedures.
What the organization gets
The organization works by documented procedures and is ready for supervisory reviews without exceptional effort.
Platforms in this track
Tracking disclosure requirements and statutory deadlines, and organizing the documents of the organization and its board.
Current phase: Needs analysis
Impact
Designing programs around outcomes, measuring the change they make in beneficiaries' lives, and managing them by what the measurement data shows.
What the organization gets
A standing measurement framework inside the organization, and an impact report issued every cycle from its own data.
Platforms in this track
The organization builds a measurement framework for its programs, collects beneficiary data, and issues its impact report every cycle with its own team.
Current phase: Co-design
Devising and designing development, charitable and social-investment projects, from problem analysis to the implementation plan.
Current phase: Needs analysis
Sustainability and resource development
Diversifying the organization's income and organizing how it is managed: income-generating social ventures, social investment opportunities, endowments and their yields and products, grants and partnerships.

The organization manages its income sources in one place and tracks their returns and impact in its financial plan.
