MetriqOS

Run DataPulse™ whenever you're ready — one click scores your full dataset against your donor's quality framework. The cycle above simply does not happen.

DataPulse™

USAID ADS 201 — or build your own.
One on-demand score.

Run DataPulse™ whenever you're ready — one click scores your full dataset against USAID's real ADS 201 data-quality standard (Validity, Reliability, Timeliness, Precision, Integrity), or a framework you configure yourself for a consortium, organisational, or country-specific standard. Switch anytime — the score recalculates.

No other M&E platform ships an integrated DQA engine

"DataPulse™ scores your full dataset against your chosen framework whenever you run it — before a quarterly report, before a donor visit, before an audit. It is the only integrated DQA engine of its kind in the sector."

USAID

ADS 201 · 5 Dimensions

Validity · Reliability · Timeliness · Precision · Integrity of data

Custom

Your Own Framework

Define dimensions and weightings for consortium, organisational, or country-specific standards

Plus three MetriqOS quality additions — applied on top of any framework

Evidence Density

What proportion of data points have supporting evidence attached? MoV coverage tracked automatically — not checked at audit time.

Verification Depth

How robust is the triangulation? Cross-referenced data points score higher than single-source reporting. Visible at the indicator level.

Context Score

Data entry accompanied by field narrative scores higher. Prevents decontextualised numbers from reaching the donor report unchallenged.

GroundTruth

Verify in the field.
Score before it
hits the database.

GroundTruth collects field data offline and auto-tags every submission to its indicator — no manual re-entry. DataPulse™ field verify scores the data point before it's accepted. Already using Kobo? Sync submissions directly.

📱

Offline-capable PWA

Enumerators work without connectivity. Data syncs the moment signal returns. Zero data loss, full timestamping.

⚡

Auto-tag to indicators

Every submission links to the right indicator automatically. No re-entry, no mismapping, no version confusion.

✓

Field verification at entry

DataPulse™ field verify captures on-the-ground confirmation — GPS, photo, enumerator signature — before the data point is accepted.

🔗

Kobo-compatible (XLSForm)

Same form standard. Sync Kobo submissions into MetriqOS without migrating. GroundTruth is complementary, never competitive.

IPTT

Indicator tracking
that scores itself.

Your IPTT in MetriqOS is not a spreadsheet. Every target, every baseline, every achievement carries a DataPulse™ quality score — so what you report to donors has been passing quality gates all year, not just this week.

∞

On-demand scoring, whenever you need it

Run DataPulse™ with one click — scores your full dataset on demand, so you're ready before a donor visit, not after one.

Donor framework on demand

Score against USAID ADS 201, or switch to a framework you configure yourself, with one click.

✓

Audit-ready at all times

Full entry-by-entry audit trail. Who entered what, when, from which source, with which evidence.
