The preliminary results of the CBi Network Assessment Tool indicate that CBi Member Networks provide clear value to their stakeholders, yet only a few of them currently invest in monitoring, evaluation and impact measurement. This hinders their ability to demonstrate systematic evidence of their impact, mobilize new members and strengthen their overall efforts.
Yet this phenomenon does not only exist among private sector networks. In fact, there is increasing pressure across the humanitarian system to demonstrate impact. This interest also reflects the quest for accountability in humanitarian action. Greater emphasis is placed on results - organizations not only report progress in implementing activities, but are also expected to demonstrate systemic and sustainable impact and changes in people’s lives. Therefore, the question is what format and process should impact measurement take.
CBi will focus on developing tools and providing more support to CBi Member Networks in monitoring and evaluating their activities and measuring the impact on societal and business resilience.

The Alliance for Risk Management and Business Continuity (AGERCA) is an independent non-governmental organization (NGO) that provides a mechanism for the Haitian private sector to support the national system for risk and disaster management and to enable businesses of all sizes to recover quickly and build forward better from crises.
As a member of the national emergency operations center, AGERCA participated in national emergency coordination meetings. They supported the General Directorate of Civil Protection in coordinating the response of the private sector, civil society and Haitian diaspora. On 14 August, following a request from the Haitian government, AGERCA provided phone credits to support information management and coordination. AGERCA also immediately started to map local private sector resources and capacities that could be mobilized to support disaster relief in cooperation with its members. In addition to financial contributions, AGERCA member companies and partners made in-kind donations of critical items including thousands of gallons potable water, clothes, solar-powered refrigerators, etc. AGERCA also posted regular situation reports and deployed a staff member to the south of Haiti to support the earthquake response in the most affected communities.
