Data maturity assessment

We’ve been researching data maturity in the not-for-profit sector since 2015. Our data maturity assessment is both a tool for learning and a catalyst for action. It enables organisations to engage their staff in thinking and learning about data, measure and benchmark where they are right now, and start to plan their journey to improve.

We offer a range of packages for our organisational data maturity assessment, with discounts available for small charities. Our silver and gold packages include extras such as more in-depth analysis and reporting, internal benchmarking by team or department, and customised external benchmarking (eg by sector, subsector, income band, geography).

In addition we also offer cohort data maturity assessments for groups of organisations, usually as part of a wider discovery exercise and/or capacity building initiatives.

Discounts are available for multiple assessments e.g. baseline and post intervention. Our re-seller programme also ensures partners and other consultants can use our tool with their clients.
