Often the most valuable service a fundraising consultancy can give in terms of Information Technology is to act as a buffer between the technospeak of the programmers and the "coal face" of a development office.
ASK Associates' consultants have installed virtually all of the
industry-leading fundraising database packages, including
AppealMaster™, Alms™, Raiser's Edge™ and FundMaster Pro™. They know the
problems inherent in data conversion, hardware provision, network
connectivity, dedicated personnel training and data organisation.
Perhaps most important, they have witnessed and occasionally committed
every common mistake in the lexicon of relationship databases and can
help you avoid them.
Over 50% of every successful development function's workload is
research and database management. Make sure you are getting value for
yours.
