Impact Assessment
Triple Impact, One Story
We connect social, legislative, and economic outcomes in a single narrative—one logic model, one dashboard, one decision path. Kaizen’s SLEIA™ methodology links drivers to measurable KPIs, turning complex trade-offs into an integrated, board-ready story that speeds alignment and approvals.
Proof, Not PowerPoint
We validate every recommendation with field pilots, benchmarks, and defensible analytics. You get living dashboards and implementation playbooks, not slideware, so leaders can track impact and course-correct in real time.
Saudi-First by Design
Built around Vision 2030 priorities, local regulations, and Saudi data sources, our models reflect how decisions play out on the ground. We design bilingual deliverables, align with ministerial and authority requirements, and tailor solutions for both government entities and national champions in the private sector.
We specialize in
Triple-Impact Decisions
Policy & Regulatory Design. We turn strategy into enforceable policy, conducting Regulatory Impact Assessments, stakeholder consultations, and pilot trials. We link legal options to social and economic outcomes, so ministries and boards can choose the least-burdensome, effective path.
Economic Planning & Project Appraisal. We compare alternatives with rigorous economics: cost-benefit, NPV/IRR, scenario analysis, and CGE/SAM modeling. The result is clear investment priorities and funding cases across tourism, agriculture, digital platforms, and infrastructure.
Measurement, Data & Enablement. We build KPI and SROI frameworks, connect them to real data, and deliver dashboards that track Triple Impact in one view. We train your staff, localize methods to Saudi standards and Vision 2030 targets, and embed governance to drive improvement.

- Regulatory Alignment: Aligned with the Ministry of Municipal, Rural Affairs and Housing (MoMRAH), National Housing Company (NHC), and Vision 2030 housing and urban development objectives.
2. Economic Impact & Portfolio Assessment
-
- Description: Evaluates the economic contribution of individual projects or entire portfolios by quantifying their effects on GDP, employment, household income, and government revenues.
- Methodology: Uses input-output (IO) multipliers and scenario analysis to estimate direct, indirect, and induced economic impacts at both national and regional levels.
- Tools & Models: Relies on IO tables, economic multipliers, sectoral contribution models, and project evaluation frameworks linked to Vision 2030 KPIs.
- Deliverables: Impact scorecards, portfolio heat maps, regional impact dashboards, and an executive report highlighting economic value creation and trade-offs.
- Use Cases in KSA: Applied in measuring the economic effects of infrastructure portfolios, tourism development programs, and large-scale industrial initiatives under Vision 2030 and the National Transformation Program.
- Regulatory Alignment: Aligned with Vision 2030 indicators, National Transformation Program (NTP) targets, and Ministry of Economy and Planning (MEP) frameworks for evaluating economic development initiatives.

- Methodology: Conducts value-chain mapping, import substitution analysis, and localization readiness assessments to design phased roadmaps for sectoral and regional supply-chain integration.
- Tools & Models: Employs localization indices, sectoral input-output models, cost-benefit frameworks, and value-chain simulation tools aligned with national procurement and industrial strategies.
- Deliverables: Localization assessment reports, prioritized supply-chain maps, Make-in-KSA roadmaps, and dashboards for monitoring localization progress and sectoral competitiveness.
- Use Cases in KSA: Applied in assessing localization opportunities in defense, healthcare, and industrial supply chains, supporting national strategies to reduce import dependency and boost local content.
- Regulatory Alignment: Aligned with the Local Content and Government Procurement Authority (LCGPA) and Vision 2030’s localization and industrial diversification programs.
