Charities can learn from other charities when deploying managed IT services

At a time when budgets are being stretched to the limit as the financially squeezed population cut back on donations, charities are increasingly looking to work efficiently and ensure IT investments provide value for money. In a bid to cut costs, while improving communications and fundraising, many charities are turning to IT managed services, an approach where the day-to-day IT management responsibilities are outsourced as a strategic method for improving operations.

Using a professional outsourcer enables charities to concentrate on core services, rather than spend time training staff on new technology or solving IT problems. In addition, organisations can be assured IT services are efficiently managed and only the most innovative solutions deployed to reduce costs, improve communications and streamline operations. These are all benefits no charity should overlook.

In fact, many charities are embracing the use of IT managed services to reduce overheads, improve communications and increase fundraising. Given the success these charities are having deploying IT managed services, other Should consider taking a leaf out of their book as they too could realise the same benefits if they follow suit.
