About NonProfit Technology Assessments:
An ENTECH Technology Assessment provides an unbiased review of an organization's technology needs. A comprehensive, independent assessment is the first step in development of a technology plan. To date, ENTECH has provided technology assessments for nearly 100 nonprofit organizations in Milwaukee and Waukesha.
The Process:
 Technology assessments begin with the ENTECH Assessment Tool. The recipient organization is asked to complete this comprehensive survey to the best of their ability. This information is returned to ENTECH at least 1 business day before the interview.
The Interview brings the Executive Director and persons responsible for technology at the nonprofit together with ENTECH staff. This meeting is typically 2-3 hours where key questions are answered and information on the assessment tool is verified.
ENTECH staff then begin to research appropriate solutions and compile recommendations into a report. This phase takes typically 10-15 business days while extensive research and internal discussion take place.
The Product:
A report is produced and sent back to the organization. The report contains many detailed recommendations in each of the Assessment Coverage areas. Every recommendation will contain the following three key elements in plain English:
· What we recommend. In one concise statement, we detail the action your organization should take.
· Why we recommend it. ENTECH will explain our motivations behind the recommendation in terms of your organization's mission and overall goals.
· How to do it. We will show you the first steps to begin the process of implementing the recommendation. This may be an attachment to the report, a diagram or an Internet resource.
