NPO's Digital Integration of the Regional Associations with Umbrella Organisation

Abstract

The NPO has two head offices, located in Zurich and Lausanne, along with ten active regional associations. However, the regional associations operate independently from the umbrella organisation as they possess their own economic rights. While the entire organisation has interfaces for information exchange, each regional association uses its own tools and has set up its IT structures differently. Some even continue to work with analogue methods, such as Excel sheets. This initial situation leads to inefficient cooperation, where human and time resources could be better utilised elsewhere.
