The Networked Nonprofit Initiative can assist your organization to create comprehensive strategies for technology investment rooted in today’s new technological realities. We have pooled our knowledge and experience with nonprofit strategic planning generally with the technical expertise of mission critical software and web systems to enable your organization to deliver services more effectively and at lower cost.
Our distinct approach to new Web technologies to offer a different kind of nonprofit technology planning.
An assessment will determine the technology needs and opportunities for significant improvement in organizational effectiveness. These areas include back-office operations, data and network security, data and document management, internal and external communications, and staff development. The outcome will be a strategic technology plan including the following:
- Technology Vision and Goals – how technology, particularly emerging technology, will enhance mission and goals for more effective service delivery and organizational efficiency.
- Basic Operational Recommendations - including an emphasis on “quick-hits” that require smaller investments, but result in cost savings.
- Strategic Investments - that focus on the mission. Cost benefit analysis will be conducted on the multiple investment options for each potential investment.
- Timeline and Budget Scenarios - for the multiple options will be presented.
- Evaluation metrics - determine scope and scale of effectiveness of technology implementation and to allow improved management of the IT Portfolio.
These services are offered on affordable. sliding scale based on operating budget size.
