Impact: the indicators of performance

In order to measure the impact of our project, we will use key performance indicators (KPIs). KPIs show the progression of a certain task or project towards an objective and thus reveal the strategic and operational improvements needed to reach the expected result.

Some KPI that could be useful for our application:

We will need to assess how much an average pollution created by a meal pollutes and how much could be saved if the meal were vegetarian, vegan or organic.

Among these potential indicators, the main indicator will be the number of students (cooks and consumers) using the app, and their frequency of use. They are the easiest to measure and they give a good first idea of the performance of the application. The other indicators might be good to measure in the long run, to see if the application is sustainable and if it really helps We would also create a comparative database of prices on the app and other food providers, and the estimated ecologic impact or gain.
