NuMetric

The NuMetric allows businesses to monitor social return with the precision that accounting tools provide with respect to financial return, empowering them to improve their performance in this vitally important area.  


Focusing on small/medium enterprises (SMEs) – 99% of all businesses – it monitors a company’s Decency across five dimensions: (1) Product Quality and Value; (2) Operations and Supply Chains; (3) Work Conditions/Employee Well-being; (4) Environmental Responsibility; and (5) Community Involvement. Then, within each, it creates multiple subcategories – each with a numeric score.

Empowering SMEs to steadily improve their social return, the NuMetric is:

Comprehensive, covering all of the ESG categories, plus nearly a dozen others:

1

Focusing on internal processes rather than externally defined outcomes, it identifies areas of operation that most need to be adjusted to improve social return.

2

Self-contained, it uses easy to apply metrics thus allowing for ongoing assessment and greater learning over time.

In collaboration with Bloom Funding, the Foundation offers a groundbreaking, 8-week Sustainability Bootcamp for Small/Medium Business Enterprises based on the Nu Metric – a game changer for business owners/operators who care about the future our children will inherit.

Bootcamp graduates can apply for and become Decency Certified Organizations.
