Apply for authorisation to use MVM
The BCCM worked with researchers at Monash University’s Monash Business School to develop the Mutual Value Measurement Framework© (the MVM Framework) to help co-operative and mutual enterprises (CMEs) to measure their total value creation (mutual value) through a set of common dimensions and a shared language about measuring and reporting mutual value.
The MVM Framework© can be used by co-operatives and mutuals across different industries, of different sizes and scales, and provides members of co-ops and mutuals with a tool to measure and communicate that their entity is being run in a manner which has demonstrated its positive impact on members, customers, the community and the economy.
Use of MVM requires authorisation as set out below for non-EU and EU-based co-ops and mutuals.

We are offering you the ability to use the MVM Framework© for your co-operative or mutual and we are asking for commitments from you in return. These commitments include:
