Collaboration on a tight budget for a local charity

The challenge

Staff used personal email and free tools; trustees could not reliably access grant documents.

What we delivered

  • Reviewed technology needs, available budget and existing software subscriptions.
  • Improved collaboration, data storage and remote working for staff and volunteers.
  • Deployed non-profit Microsoft 365 tier with structured grant and project folders.

Business improvements

  • Helped reduce costs by removing unused services.
  • Trustees and staff collaborated on grants without version chaos.
  • More charity resources focused on core mission delivery.
