Do you need help to improve the operations of your not-for-profit organisation? Let’s discuss how Microsoft Power BI is your ideal tool to overcome this issue.

Nowadays, effective and seamless data utilisation has become critical for nearly all organisations across all industries, and not-for-profit organisations are no different. Employees and volunteers must be able to access and use information whenever required.

According to Salesforce’s Nonprofit Trends Report, not-for-profit organisations that are digitally mature by utilising the latest technologies and tools like Power BI are 4x more likely to exceed mission goals and 2x more likely to exceed fundraising goals. NFPs (not-for-profit) organisations can use Microsoft Power BI to combine data from many sources, like spreadsheets, databases, and cloud services, to produce interactive visualisations to see trends and possibilities.

What is Microsoft Power BI?

Microsoft Power BI is a powerful analytics tool for businesses that offers a platform to collect and analyse data through interactive and attractive visualisation. Power BI for not-for-profits is a must-have tool to transform business operations and it is continuously growing to become one of the leading business intelligence tools.

By leveraging Power BI, you can seamlessly merge data from various business systems to create powerful reports that enable your team to uncover valuable insights from your data.

Common Challenges Faced by Not-For-Profit Organisations

Most of the NFPs (not-for-profit) widely use spreadsheets in the reporting process. This method is manual and extra time is required for configuring the data and formulas.

As the data is available through different systems like finance, fund-raising, CRM (Customer Relationship Management), etc., it becomes easier to analyse with one centralised system.

Not-for-profit organisations work towards a good cause, so poor quality and inaccurate data may affect their business workflows.

Budget constraint is always present for NFPs (not-for-profit). So, building accurate reports on time to track expenses and ask for further funds becomes necessary.

Not-for-profit organisations collect sensitive data of individuals or organisations to help them better. However, keeping this personal data safe and secure is challenging for most NFPs (not-for-profit).

Top 7 Benefits of Power BI for the NFP (not-for-profit) Industry

  • Increase Awareness:

Power BI enables you to make attractive visualisations, graphics, charts, etc. that illustrate what your not-for-profit organisation does, or what impact it makes. This also increases the reach and raises public awareness to get more contributions and funds from the people.

  • Monitoring Donations and Funding:

Power BI helps in tracking donations and funding to understand the source and motive of funding. This provides deeper insights into available funds to effectively organise any new initiatives or programs.

  • A Unified View of Data:

Due to legacy systems, it becomes difficult to combine and analyse data from multiple sources in one report. Power BI combines data from different sources and creates interactive reports and dashboards to offer actionable insights.

  • Efficient Reporting:

Power BI helps you with tracking and reporting funds by enabling you to build reports of funds used for multiple programs without any complexity. Also, a program outcome report is necessary to analyse the impact and performance of your programs. Power BI helps you to easily compare the results of multiple programs to get feedback on how the programs can be implemented more effectively.

  • Improve Operations:

With legacy systems, you need to analyse multiple spreadsheets and reports to understand the trends or opportunities to improve performance. Power BI displays your real-time data in a visual format that helps you uncover insights about trends in the donors’ or sponsors’ behaviour to improve operations.

  • Managing Workloads:

Managing the workload of volunteers helps to keep them stress-free and fresh for multiple events or programs. Power BI provides management with the data of satisfaction level and workload of volunteers to manage them effectively. Additionally, this information enables managers to know the skills and availability of volunteers so that they can be assigned to the appropriate programs.

  • Affordable and Familiar:

Microsoft offers inexpensive solutions for not-for-profit organisations and Power BI is one of the cost-effective choices to start the business intelligence journey to improve efficiency. Additionally, as most of the users are familiar with using Excel sheets, Power BI and Excel can be effectively combined to reduce time and costs to enhance business operations.
