All impact projections generated by this tool are quantitative estimations derived from the Nitidae SGG/SFC Ghana Project baseline-vs-endline comparative analysis. Conversion rates and improvement coefficients represent population-level averages calculated across assessed cooperative cohorts operating under SFC's collective mechanised processing model.
Ranges reflect observed best-case and worst-case variance across cooperative centres currently transitioning to the SHEE Scorecard framework. The SHEE Scorecard (Scorecard tab) constitutes the primary annual performance assessment instrument for individual centre evaluation. Projections should be interpreted as indicative estimates and reviewed against site-specific field data where available.
This tool calculates SHEE performance scores for shea cooperatives. It is an internal assessment tool only — not a certification system. Scores are used for internal monitoring, buyer-facing summaries, and season-on-season improvement tracking.
A. Nut — Individual Processing · B. Nut — Collective Processing · C. Butter — Collective Processing
Select your type on the Co-op Info tab. Functional unit: Nuts = per 1 kg dried kernels · Butter = per 1 kg raw butter.
Social (S) · Health (H) · Economic (E) · Environmental (En)
Default weights: Social 20% · Health 20% · Economic 25% · Environmental 35%.
Pillar scores are combined using a weighted geometric mean — not a simple sum. This means a very low score on one pillar cannot be compensated by high scores elsewhere.
Four governance criteria (G1–G4) must be assessed. Pass = full premium benefits. Conditional = reduced benefits pending resolution. Fail = cooperative may lose premium benefits or SFC may suspend purchasing.
A (85–100) Leading · B (70–84) Strong · C (55–69) Moderate · D (40–54) Weak · E (<40) Critical
If any pillar scores below 40, grade is capped at C. Below 25 caps at D.
Four governance criteria must be assessed. Pass all 4 = Full benefits. One Partial + no Fail = Conditional benefits. Any Fail or 2+ Partial = cooperative may lose premium benefits or SFC may suspend purchasing until issues are resolved.
