Balanced Value Impact Model

The BVI Framework

Use of the BVI Model produces an impact framework as an immediate output, known as the BVI Framework. This Framework structures and guides the process to manage the gathering of impact evidence and control a process that usually has many moving parts occurring over differing timescales, with possibly different teams, resources or points of focus. The Framework itself will mainly be of use to those coordinating the activity to track activity and measures against impact indicators and objectives.
The advantage of a framework nested within an overarching model is that it allows flexibility for those tasked with its practical implementation. As long as the conceptual model is recognised, then actual delivery of any one aspect is not prescribed or required. Anyone using the BVI Model should feel free to rename or revise the functional parts in the Framework to suit local needs or to aid cognition or acceptance in their organisation or community.
The model-to-framework approach also accounts for the range of fuzzy elements within an assessment of impact. A high-level conceptual model allows for the thinking, context and perception to be represented, while the Framework allows the products of this thinking to be controlled, contained and then utilised.
