Greater Nashville’s flourishing nonprofit sector stands as one of the region’s greatest assets. Our communities are full of organizations devoted to making the world a better place by helping people, preserving our environment, and cultivating a positive culture. And these organizations, like all others, rely on technology to make their impact.

Representatives, donors, and volunteers in the nonprofit sector increasingly rely on technology to help build connections, take action, and increase awareness in their communities. This means that developing a robust IT strategy has never been more important. Quality outsourced IT services can help nonprofits build the IT infrastructure that board members and donors expect, saving industry professionals from a slew of IT headaches, and giving them more time and resources to focus on driving their mission forward.

Outsourced IT Solutions for the Nonprofit Industry

Here are a few things that a worthwhile outsourced IT services provider should provide for any nonprofit organization:

• An ideal IT partner will work in lockstep with your nonprofit to optimize, monitor, and maintain your organization’s IT systems in order to ensure you never miss a beat.

• With their very specific goals and missions in view, nonprofits need IT consultants that both understand the nonprofit industry and take the time to focus on an organization's unique goals. Look for partners that understand not-for-profit request for proposal processes and budget cycles.

• Quality outsourced IT consultants should help nonprofits comply with various IT process and security standards.

• Protecting your member and donor data and other valuable assets from online threats with advanced security solutions is paramount. Nonprofit IT services should always include cyber security services and data protection.

• Efficient budgeting and thorough documentation are critical in the nonprofit industry. Nonprofit professionals rely on IT services that help ensure every dollar is accounted for. An IT infrastructure that provides key stakeholders with documentation as you apply for grants is also essential. The ideal IT partner can help nonprofits procure the right application and management software to meet these needs.

• Whether the project involves online donor campaigns, collaboration tools for volunteers on the go, or any other online initiative your nonprofit is cooking up, quality IT support services should help ensure you are getting proper network support and seamless service across multiple devices, anywhere and anytime.

• As your organization grows, so does your data. The right managed IT services provider will help nonprofits with data management services to help push your mission forward.
