An international agency dedicated to leading global efforts in protecting individuals forced to flee their homes. This organization delivers life-saving assistance, including shelter, food, and water, to those displaced by conflict and crisis. With a core focus on safeguarding fundamental human rights, the agency works tirelessly to ensure the safety, dignity, and well-being of vulnerable populations, providing them with the support they need to rebuild their lives in the face of adversity.
The agency faced significant financial constraints, with limited funds available to support its vital work. In an effort to maximize the contributions from donors and ensure that more resources were directed towards refugee camps and agencies assisting millions affected by war, the organization sought to increase investments and achieve a higher return on investment for its programs. A key goal was to create a sustainable program that generated predictable income, enabling long-term impact.
Additionally, the agency struggled with slow and cumbersome manual reporting processes that hindered its ability to provide timely, accurate updates to stakeholders. The time-consuming nature of these manual procedures also detracted from the agency’s ability to focus on strategic growth and fundraising efforts. These challenges were particularly pressing for the agency’s top leaders, who were tasked with overseeing financial sustainability, donor relations, and the efficient allocation of resources.
Datamatics deployed a robust Microsoft BI platform to address the agency’s challenges of scattered data and inefficient reporting processes. The solution featured a SQL Server 2012 database, designed to centralize data from various sources, including MS Excel files, MS SharePoint lists, Oracle databases, and inputs from both regional and head offices.
SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) was used to automate the data upload process, ensuring smooth integration and minimizing manual effort. This allowed for streamlined, real-time access to accurate data across the organization.
To enhance user accessibility, MS SharePoint 2013 was utilized as a platform for easy data retrieval and interaction. It provided a centralized, user-friendly interface for stakeholders to access stored data, facilitating quicker decision-making. The solution not only improved data accuracy but also simplified the reporting process, replacing slow, manual workflows with automated, efficient processes. This enabled the agency’s leadership to focus on strategic growth, maximize donor contributions, and ensure a more sustainable and predictable income stream.
