Nonprofits

Move beyond static and compliance-driven reporting. Transform evaluation into a powerful engine to strengthen operations for continuous learning and improvement — equipping your organization with data that is meaningful to your mission, the skills, systems, and strategies to use insights that reflect your community’s greatest needs.

Grantmakers  + Networks

Make data a driver of equity and effectiveness — not just accountability. Invest in your nonprofit partners’ confidence and ability to measure what matters to them. Strengthen organizations’ systems and data practices to measure and accelerate program success and provide donors with accurate and impactful stories.

How?

Evaluation Services with a twist.

ResultsLab’s ACT™ Model – Align, Capture Transform is ResultsLab’s proprietary framework that supports clients in defining the right metrics to measure their desired impact, determining how to collect that data and how to analyze that data to adjust operations and further impact.

Our approach will operationalize data, evaluation and continuous quality improvement. Your teams will have the ability to make informed decisions, drive quality programs and stronger outcomes—so your organization doesn’t just meet its goals, it exceeds them.

When I think of data I feel

(Drag the smiley face)

Like I want to cry

I have no idea where to even begin.

I’m exhausted

The work is burdensome and overwhelming. I’m ready to throw in the towel.

A little worried and isolated.

Am I using data in the right way? How are others using it?

I’m confused.

Our organization has data, but not sure what to do next. How can I take all this information and turn it into action?

Neutral.

Sort of like taking a shower. Don’t love it or hate it, but it has to be done.

Pretty content

Our organization has a good foundation, but would like to take it to the next level.

Happy.

I have tools and processes that make it easy to collect and analyze data.

Excited

I love being able to use data to solve problems and answer questions our organization has.

Love it!

Our team is continuously using data to improve our programs and reach our goals. Throughout the process we elevate community voice so that those closes to the problems we seek to solve are actively engaged.
