A Year in Review - A Look Back at Some of Clear Impact's Thoughts on Racial Equity
Clear Impact is dedicated to promoting and helping organizations around the country advance racial equity in their communities. We believe that the Results-Based Accountability methodology provides a foundation that can help organizations develop and improve racial equity measures. Furthermore, when developing and managing community indicators and performance measures, the data must be disaggregated by race for a true understanding. To close out 2021, we have created a list of all of the content on our website that covers some of these ideas:
Clear Impact Wins First U.S. Department of Defense Contract With AFWERX SBIR Phase I Contract
We are pleased to announce that Clear Impact was awarded an AFWERX Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I contract. To win, Clear Impact leadership successfully established the technical merit, feasibility, and commercial potential of our proposed Research/ Research & Development efforts and met AFWERX SBIR performance quality standards. According to AFWERX (a technology acceleration project coordinated by the U.S. Air Force), the SBIR program enables small businesses to explore their technological potential. It also provides profit incentives for the commercialization of technological developments.
Feds and Their Contractors Should Know Their Numbers
Imagine a world where every employee had one performance measure they were accountable for moving.
In recent years, the establishment of the Government Performance and Results Act, Performance.gov, and the Performance Improvement Council are a few modern manifestations of using data to improve public accountability. Many governments have also begun utilizing web-based data analytics and dashboard tools to communicate their efforts around performance with stakeholders, partners, and the public. There is no lack of want or values, and many are certainly trying hard. If it’s not a lack of effort, what comes next? What can drive government accountability to the next level? What will maximize impact on wellbeing?
