Hi Sean,
Great question! Grameen Foundation has a case study on the PPI website about Grameen Koota's use of the PPI to track poverty movement over time - http://www.progressoutofpoverty.org/sites/default/files/Grameen%20Koota%20PPI%20Mini%20Case%20Study.pdf. We are also currently in the process of conducting analysis for a few other organizations who have multiple years of PPI data, with a report coming out in about a month. We'll be coming out with guidelines for conducting that type of analysis also.
In addition to movement over time, there are more and more organizations using the PPI now in multiple ways and in many sectors including agriculture and health. See more case studies - http://www.progressoutofpoverty.org/case-studies-reports. We are working on a 'PPI Global Use Report' which will highlight the many users and uses of the PPI globally. If your organization uses the PPI and you aren't sure if we know about it, please contact Lindsey Alexander at lalexander@grameenfoundation.org.
Best regards

Thanks Mark.
Can you (or others) share any recent examples of organizations that are using one or both of these tools?
And for anyone out there using a poverty scorecard, have you used it beyond determining the likely poverty status of people you serve to measure changes in poverty status over time?
Cheers,
Sean

How do the two differ? For estimating a group's poverty rate, both are unbiased, and the scorecard has smaller standard errors. For targeting individual households, the PAT correctly classifies about one more household per 100. The scorecard has an edge in availability, recentness, and transparency."Mark Schreiner
