Learn how Ksapa developed streamlined metrics to maximize hydroelectric project’s community impact

The Challenge

A major infrastructure company needed to quantify and communicate the social benefits of their 4-year hydroelectric dam construction project, while creating a replicable methodology for future initiatives. They sought to balance rigorous impact measurement with practical implementation.

Our Approach

Through comprehensive stakeholder engagement, we:

  • Conducted in-depth consultations with cross-functional leaders including site management, technical, Human Resources, finance, and ESG teams
  • Mapped priority social impact themes against international IRIS+ standards to ensure data comparability
  • Aligned indicators with UN Sustainable Development Goals to demonstrate broader contribution
  • Assessed implementation feasibility considering data availability and collection methods

Results

We delivered a customized social impact framework that:

  • Established context-specific metrics prioritized by internal stakeholders
  • Provided detailed implementation guidelines using IRIS+ methodology
  • Created a scalable model for future infrastructure projects
  • Enabled standardized impact reporting across the organization
