Picture this: you’re running a nonprofit organization or social enterprise in today’s fast-paced world. Data from your program participants is coming at you from the field daily, and you must carefully track your impact data to report to donors and sponsors as well as keep track of your Monitoring & Evaluation system. How do you keep it all together? Well, that’s where centralized data management system comes into play.
In this blog post, we’ll dive into how TaroWorks and Salesforce can help you with data centralization to streamline your operations and make your team’s work a lot easier working with Salesforce to collect, store, and analyze your impact data and maximize your team’s efficiency.
Centralized data management is basically like your HQ for all things data. It streamlines information from all over the place – program participants, donors, field teams, or your supply chain – and combines it into one neat and tidy system.
TaroWorks is a mobile application that allows you to access your CRM offline and collect data from the field. Its integration with Salesforce extends your CRM to the field and will enable you to store all the data your teams collect in one place.
Meet Village Enterprise, a nonprofit on a mission to fight poverty and empower women in East Africa. They are doing amazing work, but like any organization, they face challenges with all the impact data they collect daily. They also did not have a one-stop shop for all their data to easily analyze it and make quicker, smarter decisions. That’s where TaroWorks stepped in.
Village Enterprise’s digital transformation journey underscores the importance of mobile and cloud technology in managing field operations efficiently. As the poverty graduation program expanded, so did their need for technology that seamlessly handled data collection, analysis, and program evaluation.
The role of female business mentors equipped with mobile devices and the TaroWorks app is central to this success. They track program metrics such as poverty probability index, business health, training attendance, and savings progress, enabling informed advice and targeted support for entrepreneurs.
Moreover, technology and data have inspired program participants to embrace digital tools, promoting smartphone use and facilitating the transition to mobile money for business grants distribution.
Despite challenges posed by COVID-19, Village Enterprise’s adaptability and utilization of technology ensured program continuity. Through empowering women with technology and data skills, Village Enterprise is making significant strides in poverty alleviation and women’s empowerment, demonstrating the transformative potential of tech-enabled initiatives.
As seen in the Village Enterprise success study, centralized data management is key for Monitoring and Evaluation and Case Management. It can help an organization keep its impact data and make it accessible to everyone so that they can make better decisions, receive real-time updates, and save time and resources.
