“The Southern Colorado Economic Development District works in 13 diverse counties.  The NewOrg Platform was the missing piece in our efforts to ensure we meet the needs of our stakeholders.  “

Leslie Mastroianni , Executive Director 

Southern Colorado Economic Development District 

 

SCEDD’s diverse services and stakeholders were being tracked in multiple ways in various locations.  It was difficult to get reports and a big picture view of operations.  

By utilizing NewOrg’s configurable one-stop data management platform, SCEDD can effectively manage and maintain up to date records of their members, daily attendance, systems advocacy assistance, grant administration assistance, and more! 

The NewOrg Team has helped SCEDD by: 

  • Establishing processes to document meetings, roadshows and resource fairs. 
  • Enabling reporting on activities and communications with organizations in 13 counties. 
  • Configuring a grant tracking system to effectively record projects and grant applications. 
  • Tracking progress and development of small businesses. 
  • Utilizing email to stay connected with stakeholders and notify them of upcoming events. 
  • Creating a workflow for submission and verification of travel time claims. 
  • Configuring an internal message center to communicate with team members about events/new clients. 
  • Deploying a system that will help SCEDD with service delivery, tracking and future growth!
