And since then they have worked tirelessly to ensure that every child, in every situation, in every circumstance and in every place, can survive, learn and be protected.

The problem identified: The need for a powerful Business Intelligence tool.
Save the Children being present and developing projects in more than 120 countries, it had problems standardising, analysing and sharing the growing information, because it did not have a powerful business intelligence tool. Part of the data management and analysis was carried out with Excel spreadsheets, manually, with the possibility of making mistakes and the time cost that this entailed. Ultimately, the challenge was to ensure that this international NGO could grow at the pace it set for itself without worrying about its BI tool and that it could focus its attention on getting more members and volunteers and developing its projects more efficiently.
Save The Children needed a new technology to manage and analyse its growing volume of data and a technology partner to advise them on the selection and implementation of a new, more advanced and powerful business intelligence solution.
