BUILD AN INFORMATION STRATEGY FOR YOUR ORGANIZATION WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT? Technology-driven information management plays an ever-increasing role in helping nonprofits understand the world around them—and their impact on it. Accordingly, nonprofits want to know if technology is available to help them succeed at a higher level. The answer to this question is almost always “Yes, there is a technology solution.” But how can a nonprofit get a return on investment that justifies the time and dollars expended? That’s a different question entirely. Our experience is that nonprofits often struggle to successfully implement technological change. A large percentage of technology projects fail to achieve their goals, and many fail outright. This failure is due to lack of information management capacity in one or more critical areas. Your organization can build the capacity to successfully select and implement game-changing technologies. Creating a good information strategy is the key to building this capacity within your organization. An information strategy defines the path that the organization must travel in order to improve in information management leadership/governance, operations, process, data, and technology. This whitepaper provides critical insight derived from our partners’ decades of experience. We hope that this information strategy whitepaper helps your organization get started on building the capacity to achieve maximum return from your technology investments. © 2016 Build Consulting.
