Research and Analysis
Data is power. As a nonprofit leader you need to make informed decisions. We’ve been at this for a long time, and PIM Group can help on several fronts.
Market & Stakeholder Research
Using applied research methods such as survey research, focus groups and interviews, PIM can directly engage key stakeholders, such as community members, funders, clients, staff and board members. We’ll gain valuable insight into their needs, preferences and priorities related to your work, and a clear view of your brand equity. This data can inform management strategies or tie seamlessly into strategic and business planning.
Compensation Analysis
Salaries and benefits accounts for the bulk of your expense budget. In the new economy, the stakes are high. We will systematically analyze your salaries and benefits relative to the market to help you understand where adjustments are needed and how savings can be reaped. We’ll work with you to identify a structure that supports retention and recruit-ment, while balancing financial risk. We can also engage staff to support implementation of changes.
Financial Analysis
We deliver customized support for leaders of nonprofits at an affordable fee. A scope of work may include:
Focused analysis of your organization’s business model
Multi-year financial modeling of operations
Matrix mapping and articulation of your organization’s cost structure
Clarification of your financial story through an engaging set of reports and metrics
Guidance to senior staff in building a financial strategy
Facilitated strategy sessions with board and staff leaders
Success Factor Analysis
What are your organization's strengths and weaknesses, and what's your optimal strategy to improve performance looking forward? Organizational assessment can address these big questions. Success Factor Analysis is PIM Group's innovative assessment methodology. We've developed and tested this system with over 50 nonprofits. We engage diverse stake-holders in a 360 review that highlights those areas of develop-ment likely to reap the greatest returns on investment.
