Solutions to Help Associations and Nonprofit Organizations
Respond, Adapt & Transform
Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, associations and nonprofit organizations are undergoing a rapid digital transformation to ensure their employees have the right technologies to do their best work while seamlessly carrying out their mission – especially during uncertain and changing circumstances.
Together, we can help your organization respond to unprecedented challenges, rebound effectively, and reinvent ways of working in these challenging times – and build a strong foundation for the future.
Empower Your Organization with Cloud & Mobile Solutions
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced associations and the nonprofit sector to rethink how they operate, work together, engage with their constituents and communities, and carry out their mission. But it has also provided a unique opportunity to transform.
And digital transformation is more urgent than ever – not just to fix broken processes and solve pain points but to ensure business continuity, operational agility, and flexibility to quickly meet changing needs while building a solid digital foundation for the future.
By leveraging cloud and mobile technology, you can empower your organization with the right tools and processes so they can work together more securely and efficiently, communicate with people both inside and outside your organization, drive collaboration and productivity, make data-driven decisions, and increase operational agility.
Although technology alone is not the answer, it can play a powerful role in providing your employees with the right tools, processes, and insights so they can carry out your organization’s mission and accelerate impact in times of crisis and beyond.
Leveraging Technology to Increase Operational Agility & Accelerate Your Mission During Challenging Times & Beyond
Embracing digital technology can help your organization optimize its operations in many ways — ultimately allowing your workforce to do more together, better serve your communities, and carry out your mission.
Yet, every organization’s digital transformation journey is unique. The key to success starts by identifying key goals and challenges, developing a strategic plan, and investing in the right technology for long-term resilience and strengthening your operational agility.
Empower Your Remote Workforce to Meet, Communicate & Collaborate in Secure, Virtual Workplace
Enabling better, easier communication and collaboration among your staff and stakeholders has never been more critical. To achieve this goal, many organizations are turning to Microsoft Teams – a popular cloud-based unified communication and collaboration platform – to stay productive, connected, engaged, and secure regardless of their location or device.
With Teams, your staff and global workforce can communicate via chat, video conferences or calls, meet online, share and co-edit documents, and collaborate with people both inside and outside your organization – all in a shared workspace. This can enable your workforce to work together more effectively to advance their mission.
Secure & Protect Your Devices, Apps & Data
The shift to remote and distributed work environments has created a new set of challenges for IT and security teams to keep workers, devices, applications, and information safe and protected. Your team can manage and secure identities, passwords, devices, and data by leveraging Microsoft 365 and Office 365’s built-in security controls along with other Microsoft security and compliance tools. Also, do not overlook strict compliance requirements.
Getting the right set of remote security processes and solutions in place is the key to reducing risk now and in the long-term.
Optimize Operations and Streamline Processes with Mobile Apps & Workflows
Processes and operations are the backbones of your organization. But working remotely has exposed critical gaps and inefficiencies in the way we work.
You can increase efficiencies, boost productivity, and keep things running smoothly by automating repetitive tasks and business processes with modern, secure apps for the mobile workforce. And, with automated workflows between cloud and low-code apps and services, you can synchronize files, get notifications, streamline approval processes, collect data, and more. Apps and business processes can directly integrate with Power BI, Microsoft Flow [now Power Automate], Office 365, Microsoft Teams, Dynamics 365, and Azure.
By modernizing key applications and business processes now, you not only ensure your operations are scalable, flexible, and efficient. You are also providing your workforce with new ways to be productive, agile, and innovative so they can focus on mission-critical activities.
Make Informed Decisions with Data Tracking, Dashboards & Visualization
Associations and the nonprofit sector need consolidated, real-time data more than ever. And data should empower, not overwhelm. Breaking down data silos, gaining a unified view of your data, and uncovering actionable insights can help your organization make informed decisions fast – and prepare for what comes next.
By tracking multiple data sources and data sets, you can put data-driven insights into everyone’s hands to spot trends, better understand the needs of your constituents and benefactors, deepen donor relations. and accelerate your impact where it is needed most. You can also make complex topics compelling and accessible by anchoring data storytelling to facts through visuals which enable your audience to connect with the information and see data visuals in action.
Developing a holistic data management plan now and adopting digital tools – like Microsoft’s Power Platform, Power BI, and Dynamics 365 – and will help provide a solid foundation for future decision-making and cost-savings.
Help Employees Safely Return Onsite to Work
The pandemic has changed the workplace and how people work. And it will be a challenge to reopen physical environments and facilities in face of changing conditions and uncertainty. But keeping your workforce and workplaces safe is a top priority – whether essential employees have already returned onsite, your staff is working in a hybrid work environment, or you are preparing your workforce for the eventual return to offices and facilities.
You will need to support your key internal stakeholders and workers with the right data to make informed decisions to reopen safely and support the health of employees. By leveraging Microsoft’s Power Platform tools, you can use mobile apps and dashboards to track, monitor, and report on key data to create a safe and healthier work environment for your employees – and provide scheduling tools for employees to ensure social distancing when working onsite.
