Non-Profit Team Confidently Moves Forward with Cloud Data Platform
Cross-functional team took great care in selecting a cloud data platform and implementation partner to represent data more holistically and share about impact more effectively
Driver
A venerated non-profit organization had data siloed across programs, which made overarching lessons learned difficult to compile and took considerable manual effort to present holistic impact metrics.
Outcome
A cross-functional team was confident in their selections and clear on next steps toward a successful roll-out. The process of considering both data platform and implementation partner allowed the team to build collaborative decision-making practices that will serve them well over the coming years as more use cases are added to the new data platform.
Approach
The FlexPoint team:
Worked with the selection team to understand data and analytics needs for more effective cross-program learning and to support impact storytelling
Worked with cloud data platforms to address client-specific needs through interactive workshops, allowing the client team to understand technical feasibility and potential tradeoffs
With the data platform chosen, facilitated a competitive process among potential implementation partners across a spectrum of onshore, hybrid, and offshore options
Worked with the selection team to align on the implementation partner who would best set them up for immediate and ongoing success
