DM-SIMM: An Implementation Organisation’s Guide to Reflect, Learn, and Act on Social Impact
Most organisations treat impact measurement as a compliance exercise. The approach, DM-SIMM (Development Management–anchored Social Impact Measurement and Management), transforms impact data from a static report into a dynamic tool for decision-making. By embedding measurement directly into the heart of your operations, this helps you shift from simply proving your impact to actively improving it.
- Define success with your community, not just for them.
- Make real-time decisions based on evidence, not intuition.
- Build an adaptive culture that learns and evolves with every project.
