Tapuwae Roa

Measuring alignment between organisational values and outcomes across five pou, using multi-modal data processing and BWM weighting.

The challenge

Tapuwae Roa holds a set of clearly defined values expressed through five pou. The organisation collects significant amounts of data - structured and unstructured, quantitative and qualitative - across its activities. Connecting that evidence to the pou in a systematic, repeatable way requires a framework that can handle both the breadth of the criteria and the diversity of the data.

The configuration

Tapuwae Roa's configuration uses the full depth of the Mindstake platform, combining multi-modal data processing, a detailed rubric, and BWM-weighted criteria.

Five pou serve as the criteria framework, reflecting the specific commitments the organisation has made to its community. These are not abstract values - they are the priorities against which outcomes are assessed.

A detailed rubric spans multiple priorities for each pou, creating a comprehensive assessment matrix. The granularity of the rubric reflects the depth of the evaluation.

AI-supported scoring helps evaluators work across the breadth of the rubric, focusing attention on the evidence that matters most for each pou and priority.

BWM weighting is completed by the team working with this specific application. Criteria weights are set contextually - the same organisation may weight pou differently depending on the type of decision being made. This means the assessment reflects the priorities that matter for this particular context, not a fixed organisational default.

The outcome

The assessment shows, in structured detail, how well outcomes align with each pou and priority - not just whether there is broad alignment, but specifically where performance is strong, where gaps exist, and where attention is needed.

The weighted view ensures that the most important pou have proportionate influence on the overall picture. This supports governance conversations grounded in evidence rather than impression, and provides a repeatable framework for future evaluation cycles.

We had the values. We had the data. What we needed was a way to connect them - to see whether we are actually doing what we said matters.

The broader lesson

Tapuwae Roa uses the full depth of the Mindstake platform: five criteria, a detailed rubric, multiple scoring priorities, AI-processed multi-modal data, and BWM-weighted results. Yet the underlying pattern is identical to the simplest configuration - define what you value, assess against a rubric, and produce structured, defensible output.

The question every Mindstake configuration answers is the same: are you doing what you said matters? The complexity of the answer scales with the complexity of the question - but the method stays consistent.
