At Quematics, we are a UK-based nonprofit analytics consultancy specialising in Power BI dashboards and data analytics solutions for charities, voluntary sector organisations, and social enterprises delivering NHS-commissioned or grant-funded services. We help you transform the data you already collect into clear, credible, commissioner-ready evidence — aligned to the NHS England Strategic Commissioning Framework and the reporting expectations ICBs are moving towards for 2026/27. We also deliver specialist care home analytics for registered social care providers, and broader charity analytics for healthcare and NHS-linked charitable organisations.
Nonprofit Analytics Consultancy UK
We go beyond basic dashboards. Our work is designed specifically for charities and nonprofits that deliver NHS-commissioned or statutory services — where demonstrating outcomes, productivity, and impact on inequalities is increasingly central to contract renewal and future funding decisions.
NHS England’s Strategic Commissioning Framework is driving a shift toward evidence-based commissioning from April 2026. ICBs will increasingly expect providers to evidence performance, productivity, outcomes, impact, and demographics — not just activity volumes. We build the reporting infrastructure that makes charities ready for those conversations.
Outcomes and impact dashboards
Translate your outcome frameworks into live dashboards that track beneficiary progress, service outputs, and measurable impact over time. Whether you report to NHS commissioners, ICBs, or grant-making bodies — we build the reporting infrastructure to support it, aligned to what commissioners are asking for under the Strategic Commissioning Framework.
Secure data handling
Your data is handled using enterprise-grade security, role-based access, and governance aligned with NHS, GDPR, and commissioner expectations.
- Secure storage and access control
- Controlled sharing for commissioners, trustees, and grant-makers
- GDPR-compliant beneficiary data handling
- Clear audit trail and data quality rules
Performance and productivity reporting
Track the operational metrics commissioners increasingly expect: referrals, caseloads, waiting times, session attendance, staff hours, and throughput. Demonstrate productivity — including advocacy capacity and cases per practitioner — in a format ICBs can use directly for contract monitoring.
Demographics and inequalities reporting
Produce the equity evidence ICBs now require as standard: who is using your service by age, sex, ethnicity, deprivation, and protected characteristics. Show where your reach matches population need — and where it does not. Address the inequalities lens that is embedded across commissioner planning and oversight.
Programme and service delivery reporting
Monitor the operational health of your programmes: caseloads, referral pathways, waiting lists, session attendance, staff deployment, and service utilisation. Identify pressures early and make evidence-based decisions about resource allocation before commissioners ask the questions.
Board and commissioner-ready governance dashboards
Give your board and commissioners the strategic overview they need — concise, accurate, and always current. Replace the 40-page PDF board pack with a focused governance dashboard. Produce monthly commissioner reports automatically, aligned to your contract KPIs and the reporting cadence your ICB expects.

Our process: turning charity data into credible commissioner evidence
Secure data collection
We work with the data your charity already collects — case records, system exports, spreadsheets, forms — preparing and structuring it for accurate, consistent reporting that commissioners, auditors, and funders can trust.
Advanced data analysis
Using Power BI, cloud analytics, and AI-supported models, we uncover patterns in beneficiary outcomes, service utilisation, demographic reach, and productivity — the evidence base that underpins credible commissioner conversations.
Dashboard design and reporting
We design clear, intuitive dashboards that translate complex charity data into insight suitable for trustees, commissioners, ICBs, and programme teams — without technical complexity for your staff.
Automation and monitoring
Automated refresh and reporting workflows ensure your dashboards and commissioner packs stay current without manual effort — so your team spends less time on data admin and more time on delivery.
Ongoing support
As your services evolve and commissioner requirements change under the Strategic Commissioning Framework, your analytics evolve with them. We provide continued optimisation, enhancements, and strategic data guidance.

A nonprofit analytics consultancy specialises in helping charitable and voluntary sector organisations use data more effectively. For Quematics, this specifically means building commissioner-ready reporting, outcomes dashboards, and performance evidence for charities delivering NHS-funded or statutory services — with deep understanding of the sector’s language, systems, and reporting pressures.
It means producing reporting that meets the evidence expectations ICBs are moving towards under the NHS Strategic Commissioning Framework — covering performance (activity, demand, access), productivity (staff hours, caseloads, throughput), outcomes (what changed for people), impact (the value and so-what story), and demographics/inequalities (who benefits and who does not). Quematics builds the data model and automated reporting infrastructure that produces this evidence consistently, without your team spending days on manual preparation.
Yes — in fact, most of our charity clients have no dedicated data or BI resource. That is precisely why they come to us. We build solutions designed to be maintained and used by generalist staff, and we provide documentation and training to support that.
In most cases, yes. We have experience connecting Power BI to a wide range of charity and health sector systems, including SystmOne, EMIS, Rio, PCMIS, Upshot, Outcome Star, and various CRM and case management platforms. We will review your specific systems during the discovery call and give you an honest assessment of what is achievable.
ICBs are increasingly making commissioning decisions based on credible outcomes, equity, and productivity evidence — not just activity volumes. Organisations that can produce this evidence quickly and consistently are better placed at contract review, service expansion conversations, and competitive bids. Quematics builds the reporting infrastructure that makes that evidence available without manual effort.
Absolutely. We take data governance and GDPR compliance seriously. We work within the Microsoft Azure environment, which meets the highest standards for data security and sovereignty. We are happy to discuss data handling, data processing agreements, and security controls as part of our initial conversation.
No. All reporting and dashboards are designed for non-technical teams. The focus is on clarity, usability, and practical insight, not technical complexity.
