The Scale Toolkit, developed through the Impact at Scale Labs programme, offers practical tools and learnings for organisations to assess and improve their solution's readiness for scale, regardless of whether it's a new or an existing project. It's built around the Desirability, Viability, Feasibility (DVF) framework, with every tool meticulously linked to these key pillars. The toolkit also includes real-world case studies to inspire and inform your scaling strategies.

About the Scale Toolkit

At the heart of the Toolkit lies the Desirability, Viability, Feasibility (DVF) tool, serving as the foundational framework for assessing the key elements propelling solution readiness for scaling. Each tool within the toolkit is intricately linked to the pillars of DVF, providing actionable methodologies to scrutinize and enhance priorities, thereby ensuring a holistic approach to scaling initiatives. The Toolkit also presents real-world cases designed to inspire and inform scaling strategies. These practical instances spotlight the application of our tools and the DVF methodology across diverse settings. We are consistently enhancing our suite of tools. Your feedback is highly valued as it contributes significantly to our ongoing refinement process.

The Lab’s DVF framework has been very helpful in providing structure and planning for Sabre as we develop our work with low-fee private schools (LFPS) in Ghana. The DVF framework gives us a pathway to understand the market and viability in terms of low-fee private schools.

The DVF framework is the golden indicator of the Labs! If we can tick all the desirability, feasibility and viability ‘boxes’, we can indeed ensure our innovation is impactful at scale. The Impact at Scale Labs journey is a journey towards ticking those boxes. Each exercise, each engagement, each coaching session is essentially another step towards understanding our desirability, feasibility and viability, identifying the gaps therein, and designing solutions to help address those gaps.

In the last year, GSF has helped Gyan Shala to constantly step back and evaluate the APS programme based on new MEL data and learnings. This has helped Gyan Shala develop a more effective business model, a more accurate financial model, and has helped the organisation take strategically more sound decisions for its APS programme.
