PROGRAM EFFECTIVENESS / IMPACT ACCOUNTING

Impact overview

Bring budgets, reach, measured outcomes and attribution assumptions into one transparent decision workspace.

PORTFOLIO INTELLIGENCE / PROJECT 106

Measure what matters.
Explain what you assume.

Compare program effectiveness without presenting modeled outcomes as verified causal impact.

Interpretation guide

What the portfolio numbers can and cannot tell you

1
Measured change ≠ causal impact

Before-and-after differences may reflect confounding, selection and other factors.

2
Attribution is an assumption

A percentage chosen by the user is not established by this simulator.

3
Negative impacts stay visible

Harmful or deteriorating results are not concealed in aggregates.

INTERACTIVE WHAT-IF ANALYSIS

Scenario studio

Stress-test how program coverage, measured change, costs and assumed attribution affect impact efficiency.

◉

Scenario controls

Changes apply to all active programs; original data remains unchanged

Reach adjustment
Follow-up outcome rate adjustment
Budget adjustment
Attribution assumption adjustment
Assumption discipline: Changing attribution does not establish causal effects. Rates are clamped to 0–100%; reach and budget cannot become negative.

Scenario outcomes

Relative to the unchanged reference portfolio

Net incremental outcomes

Baseline vs selected scenario

Detailed comparison

Negative incremental results are possible and shown as negative values

UNCERTAINTY / SENSITIVITY / PRIORITIES

Uncertainty lab

Reproducible illustrative Monte Carlo draws reveal how sensitive modeled outcomes are to assumptions.

Priorities & limitations

Signals to investigate before reporting real impact

Program outcome sensitivity

Assumed incremental outcomes under ±10pp attribution

How draws are constructed

1
Reach shocks

Each draw changes projected participants around the current scenario using bounded multiplicative shocks.

2
Measured change shocks

Follow-up outcome rates receive bounded synthetic variation, with valid rate limits.

3
Attribution shocks

Attribution assumptions fluctuate, but draws are not calibrated uncertainty intervals.

Important: The 10th/50th/90th percentiles are distributions of invented assumptions, not inferential confidence or credible intervals and not proof of impact.

Methodology

Inspect the exact logic and limitations behind each score. A simulation does not substitute a real evaluation design.

☷

Impact equations

1
Observed outcome rate difference

Change = follow-up outcome rate − baseline outcome rate, expressed in percentage points.

2
Attributed incremental outcomes

Incremental = reach × (follow-up − baseline)/100 × assumed attribution/100. Negative outcomes are preserved.

3
Cost effectiveness

Cost per positive incremental outcome = budget ÷ positive incremental outcomes. Undefined when net additional outcomes ≤ 0.

4
Portfolio accumulation

Aggregate budgets, reach and signed incremental outcomes. Programs are assumed non-overlapping for summary purposes.

Scope boundaries

!
Not causal inference

No randomized design, control group adjustment, confounder identification or counterfactual estimation.

!
Do not claim verified social return

Different outcome types should not be treated as inherently comparable; the demo assumes standardized outcome units.
