Measure, Illuminate, Plan, Act
TDM is known for developing methodologies and models, and undertaking financial, statistical, data and other analysis. This is often the foundation for any investment proposal and decision making process, providing firm evidence on which to stake a position.
Measure
Measurement is the raw material needed to make a decision. It helps to define:
- Value – Measuring what is important and its worth, including net worth
- Progress – Measuring how well a project is moving towards its strategic and tactical goals
- Performance – Measuring how well an asset, project or investment meets its standards and targets to deliver desired results
- Results – Measuring whether a project has delivered the required outputs
- Impact – Measuring the noticeable effect or influence the project has on key outcomes
Illuminate
Measurement yields data or information. For this to be meaningful, its significance must be interpreted for fresh insights. Only then will the path to more robust decision making be illuminated. Depending on the stage a project or proposal has reached, appropriate evaluative measures can be taken to provide greater clarity on the next steps to be taken.
Plan
Decide the overall approach, timing, budget, and identify the activities necessary for successful achievement of the project or investment goals.
Act
Once the way forward is clear, go!
