NGOs
An NGO spends a significant share of its time producing reports. Structuring collection at source cuts that time considerably.
Stakes
What weighs on the trade
- Demanding reporting to several donors, in different formats
- Field data collection in poorly connected areas
- Traceability of how funds are used
- Staff turnover and loss of knowledge
Critical operations
What must not stop
- Planning of activities and projects
- Data collection in the field
- Budget tracking by project and by donor
- Report production
- Beneficiary management
Why digitalise
What technology changes here
When data is captured once, in the field, with the right fields, reports generate themselves. When it is re-keyed from paper forms, every report becomes a project in itself.
What can be automated
- Structured collection on mobile, including offline
- Automatic consolidation by project and by donor
- Generation of reports in the expected formats
- Budget tracking and overspend alerts
- Deduplication of beneficiaries
