Remember when it was okay to do everything by hand on paper? When it was okay to re-invent the wheel every year? When it was okay to manage fundraising data in a Lotus 1-2-3 spreadsheet or to manage donor data in an Access database? When it was okay for the Executive Director to say: "Well, 'Mary' handles that for us. I'm not really sure what goes into that process, but Mary does; she's done it for years." No more.

Nonprofits have a fiduciary responsibility to operate as efficiently as possible. dot.org's smart OperationsTM can help them do that. We can help improve and automate processes; we can manage a technology project that is being undertaken internally; we can help sort through the myriad of fundraising packages on the market today and then help make the right selection; we can then convert data, install the software, and train the users.

We can even serve, if needed, as an interim / part-time CIO. If you know where you need to go, we can help you get there.

What you just read is the Executive Director version. For all you operations folks, this list might make more sense:

software assessment and evaluation
vendor management and negotiation
build vs. buy analysis
data conversion
performance tuning & auditing
implementation and testing
team training
standards and procedures development
measurement process and tools
