The challenge

A large group, ranked below its scale

Eastern India's largest education group, with 30 institutes and 37,000+ students, wanted its NIRF results to reflect the quality of its colleges and university.

Our approach

Analytics first, institution by institution

Subject experts, a data analyst and a chartered accountant used our predictive model and peer-group micro-analysis to find each institution's highest-weightage gaps.

The impact

Rankings up across the group

JIS Group institutions improved their NIRF rankings, with an action plan and data practices in place for the next three cycles.

What we delivered

Four workstreams, six institutions
