If you are a funding organisation looking for consistent evidence to show the impact of your programmes, the Upshot system provides a funder’s view across deliverers and projects.
As a real-time monitoring and evaluation system, you’ll be able to view and analyse the live data and information collected by the organisations you fund. Your deliverers can have exclusive access to their own bespoke Upshot account with all the data feeding into an overarching Funding Account. Deliverers can be trained by us and support will be provided throughout the duration of the programme to both the Funder(s) and the deliverers.
The Upshot system gives you a birds-eye view of your programmes, as well as the functionality to dive into the details. Keep your programmes on track, set targets for yourself and the organisations you fund, and manage your funding in a way that works best for your organisation.
Whether you need top-level or granular detail, the Upshot system can provide the reports you need. Whether there’s an element to address or a success to celebrate, we can also create bespoke reporting options to monitor and showcase grantee-collected data with total ease.
The Upshot system will enable you to see how programmes and organisations are working towards your strategies and outcomes through a real-time feed of quantitative and qualitative data. Along with our MEL Services we are your one-stop data shop for uploaded evidence, demographic data, survey responses and more.
From whatever stage of the impact journey yourself or your deliverers are on; whether you have a detailed theory of change in place, or a set of objectives for your grants, or are just getting started... Upshot helps you Monitor and Evaluate the impact of your funding against a set of core aims by placing outcomes at the heart of measurement processes.
Align your outcomes to activities delivered by grantees, and record milestones that are achieved by their participants to show the indicators of success. The Upshot system also gives your grantees the flexibility and space to work on their own objectives too. As a funder, you can continue to map your outcomes into the wider strategies that you are contributing to, helping you see the role you are playing locally, nationally or internationally.
For deliverers
Time is precious. From the big picture to detailed analysis, the Upshot system makes it easy to view and analyse live data, giving your grantees more time to concentrate on doing what they do best. Because the System is designed for both funders and deliverers at any stage of the impact journey, your grantees will be given individual support, helping them to understand their data and why this is important for them as well as you.
Who we work with
Upshot works with many large funding organisations; including the Football Foundation, The FA, Sport England, Premiership Rugby, The Rank Foundation, The Young Foundations, local authorities and commissioning bodies among many others.
Just as no two funding organisations are exactly the same, we don’t adopt a one-size-fits-all approach.
If you are a grant-making body looking to improve the monitoring and evaluation of your grants, the Upshot system and our MEL Services can work for you, exactly as you require - and our dedicated team will be able to put together an individually tailored quote for you.
