After working with the charity and not-for-profit (NfP) sector for over 30 years’, we are acutely aware of the challenges that charities face – both big and small.
We are seeing our customers being tasked with supporting a more mobile and agile workforce based on the most up-to-date solutions, but similarly being asked to work within shrinking budgets due to fundraising and ongoing challenges.
Leveraging our trusted and strategic relationships with key vendors, we establish frameworks and agreements that help charity customers reduce expenditure and benefit from economies of scale, irrespective of their size. We provide tailored licensing support across a range of software vendors as well as offering technical expertise and guidance from our Infrastructure and Cloud Teams to ultimately provide a solution that is fit for purpose, futureproof and in budget.
We are able to help organisations identify how existing services could be streamlined to optimise performance and reduce costs as well as to help design ‘cloud-first’ solutions using key technologies such as Office 365 and Azure.
See below for some of the customers we’re already working with to deliver transformative change.
For the past few years, Cats Protection have been busy on a journey to go digital by rethinking the backend architecture, introducing cloud-based collaboration tools such as Microsoft Teams and reducing the amount of paper that flows through the charity. The digital transformation has proceeded gradually, increasing efficiency for nearly 1,000 staff and 11,000 volunteers as they rescue and rehome thousands of cats and educate the public on how to care for them properly. But when the COVID-19 pandemic hit, the initiative accelerated.

We chose Adobe Sign to enable e-signatures and make it possible to do all the paperwork online instead of sending it back and forth through the post — so cats can get into their forever homes faster.

Microsoft have introduced their Tech for Social Impact (TSI) Team who are dedicated to supporting organisations in the charity sector on their journey towards digital transformation.
