August 5, 2024, Providence, R.I. – SQA Group, an innovation, tech, and data services firm, has been honored by being named to the 2024 list of Most Innovative Companies by the Providence Business News. The annual distinction highlights and recognizes Rhode Island’s most innovative firms when it comes to developing new services, processes, and products that drive competitiveness and accelerate growth.

SQA Group was the winner in the Technology category, and awarded the distinction for its proprietary Metrics Finder service which helps businesses measure what’s long felt immeasurable.

“It’s a huge honor to be recognized by PBN as an innovator and a firm that is committed to redefining what’s possible,” says Carrie Majewski, SQA Group’s VP of Growth Strategy. “For far too long in business, leaders and teams have defaulted to measuring what’s safe, easy and Google-able. What’s more, companies and teams often establish KPIs, OKRs, and benchmarks based on what pre-existing systems make possible to measure.”

“Our Metrics Finder enables companies to measure the daring, augmenting tried-and-true KPIs with next-gen, Future of Work metrics,” she adds. “Providing teams with a data-backed framework to not only assess progress against areas that have long felt ‘squishy’ and ‘hard to calibrate,’ but more importantly equip businesses with a way to gauge health, performance, and vitality in a Future of Work, multi-dimensional way.”

Through the Metrics Finder, SQA Group helps companies: establish new, Future of Work definitions of success; invent a new suite of next-gen KPIs; elevate the role of data science and predictive intelligence in their firm; and establish always-on data collection and feedback mechanisms.

Since its inception, SQA Group’s Metrics Finder has helped companies around the globe finally be able to put numbers and data-backed strategy around areas like:

  • Employee Flight Risk: identify at-risk employees well before they quit
  • Speed to Innovation Activation: advance seedling ideas into game-changing innovations

  • Team Profit Center Impact: Help teams emerge as profit centers via attribution modeling
