The constantly changing world of information technology to find the systems and solutions that will give staff the most effective tools available to serve the agency’s needs and mission—without breaking the budget.

Should legacy systems be improved, enhanced, or scrapped altogether? Will proposed solutions really deliver on their promises? Will a costly investment in technology prove worthwhile and cost-effective in the face of competing agency priorities? How will these new systems be managed and maintained using your current technical staff? And how soon will even new systems become out-of-date and need to be replaced? NinthBridge can help your organization sift through the hype to find the technology solutions that best complement your agency’s overall strategic development and operations.

A trustworthy and reliable partner, NinthBridge works closely with administrative, program, and technical staff to truly understand your agency’s operations and needs, and to recommend, design, and supply affordable, customized solutions that work.

The Process
NinthBridge begins with a thorough assessment—including an on-site technology and information audit identifying the bottlenecks and barriers in your current systems—to provide a complete picture of your organization’s technical capabilities and of the most pressing informational needs of program, field, and administrative staff. In consultation with key staff, NinthBridge then helps your organization “dream big” about the use of technology and new media—forging a vision that will guide the agency’s future technological growth and help you prioritize the most cost-efficient solutions to your organization’s most pressing communications and informational needs.

After analyzing the results, NinthBridge develops an itemized, structured implementation and funding plan that focuses on both achievable long-term solutions and “quick wins” that can be instituted at low cost for an immediate effect. Immediate follow-up is offered where appropriate, including RFP development, collaboration in fund-raising efforts, staff training in effective uses of current technologies, and technical support.
