Strategy and roadmap: Data
"Boost your charity's impact by harnessing the power of data, enabling efficient operations, informed decision-making, and better outcomes."
Whether through your digital marketing, website, CRM, online fundraising or offline appeals, your organisation is continually collecting data. Data that could potentially boost your income, identify trends and provide valuable insights, and help you make better decisions.
Whilst corporates are accustomed to leveraging data to develop and improve their products and services, non-profits often make less use of technology.
A well-designed data strategy outlines an organisation’s long-term vision and guiding principles for collecting, storing, sharing and using data to maximum effect, and provides the necessary direction to help your colleagues become more data-focused so that you can adopt a true ‘data culture’.
Adapta can help you tailor a strategic vision and plan that will maximise the value you get from your data, and advise you on the governance structures, policies, architecture, and quality standards to put in place that will foster a data-driven culture.
