Blackbaud Europe Ltd has created a consultancy service that aims to help charities
get the most out of its fundraising and CRM system The Raiser’s Edge®.

 

The Raiser’s Edge Health Check is designed to identify critical issues that will
help charities optimise their usage of the system and comply with best practice.
The consultancy’s report includes recommendations that cover data cleanup, data 
hygiene and system configuration improvements. It will also suggest new and complementary
business processes for greater efficiencies and results. The report covers both 
current and potential usage of The Raiser’s Edge.

Azadi Sheridan, Blackbaud professional services practice manager, said: “Many of
our clients have successfully been using The Raiser’s Edge, growing their ambitions
and strategies at the same time as Blackbaud has been developing and broadening 
the system’s capabilities. It’s crucial that we empower our clients in their usage.
We want to help them apply The Raiser’s Edge capabilities as effectively and efficiently
as possible to realise its true value, and ultimately to achieve more for their 
organisations.”

 

The Health Check consists of a two or four day analysis in which a Blackbaud consultant
works with the client’s user teams across the organisation to review current operational
processes and to uncover where areas of The Raiser’s Edge system may not be used
to full advantage.

 

International aid charity, Magen David Adom UK (the British arm of the Israeli Red
Cross) has participated in The Raiser’s Edge Health Check. Daniel Burger, deputy
chief executive, said: “The Raiser’s Edge Health Check gave us a fresh pair of eyes,
a professional and experienced consultant who was able to look from the outside 
in with both practical and strategic vision. The resulting report has identified
areas in our fundraising process where we can immediately improve and tighten up.”
