Blackbaud launches new nfp benchmarking survey

Howard Lake | 8 August 2007 | News

Blackbaud has launched its inaugural Blackbaud UK survey SONI – State of the Not-for-profit Industry, which will gather information and provide an overview that can help not-for-profits to benchmark their operations more clearly.

The survey focuses on a series of issues critical to today’s nfps and is structured to capture data in three areas: general operations; use of the internet; and accountability and stewardship.

Blackbaud has run a similar survey in the States for the last three years, which will allow it to benchmark with the US as well.

All information will be aggregated, and it can remain anonymous.

The survey is running until 7 September and Blackbaud’s marketing manager Adrian Cutcliffe said he hoped to have the results online from 15 October. Comparisons with the US will probably be available a little later.
