Evolving Landscape, Enduring Mission

“Today, you can’t be a successful organization, for-profit or nonprofit, without an incredible technology backbone.”

Non-profits like Parkinson's Ireland navigate a complex terrain of dispersed audiences, diverse needs, and resource allocation demands. Privacy concerns, tech limitations, and stakeholder communication add layers to this challenge.

Despite these challenges, non-profits like Parkinson's Ireland remain committed to adapting and evolving, leveraging their established expertise to continuously improve the lives of those they serve.

Recognizing the need for modernization, Parkinson's Ireland partnered with CBOSIT on a transformative journey, leaving behind outdated systems and fragmented processes for a streamlined and efficient technology foundation.

In Parkinson's Ireland's quest for progress, their "Discovery" phase with CBOSIT unearthed the following hidden hurdles within their systems, demanding a transformative path.

• Membership Intake Bottleneck: A cumbersome intake process hampered potential membership growth. Instead of a smooth, digital pathway, applicants navigated a manual system, delaying their involvement and support.

• Donation Hurdles: Every contribution mattered, but processing donations required significant manual effort. This created administrative roadblocks, slowing down the crucial flow of funds towards vital services and research.

• Campaign Constraints: Raising awareness and funds often faced limitations. Executing campaigns lacked efficient tools and automation, restricting their reach and impact. This hampered crucial efforts to spread awareness, advocate for Parkinson's research, and secure essential funding.

• Renewal Roadblocks: Renewing membership should have been a simple act of continued support. However, a disjointed system made it unnecessarily complex. This led to unintentional lapses in membership, impacting both revenue and engagement with dedicated supporters.

• Manual Invoicing: Financial processes lacked automation, adding unnecessary burden. Manual invoice creation was time-consuming and prone to errors, impacting both internal efficiency and timely payments to vendors and partners.

• Limited Automation: Without automated financial processes, Parkinson's Ireland faced numerous challenges. Manual tasks slowed down operations, increased processing costs, and restricted accurate data analysis for informed decision-making.
