They were looking for software to help them manage their different processes within different teams.

Since they started using the Optimy solution, NNHF has improved its internal communication and decision-making process. “All processes happen in one place, inside the tool. The really cool thing is that we can download files from the tool and have it collected for our council. It helps us standardize everything, and it’s great that we can check past projects easier,” describes Xio Fong.

According to her, getting the right information from applicants is also easier with Optimy: “I like that I can easily set up questions and layout based on the foundation’s needs. Having this freedom, however, the time used to set up these individual questions according to our needs should also not be underestimated. But seeing the value it brings to our project management process plus, the fact that our applicants really appreciate how easy it is to fill in the form makes it worth it”.

She also highlights that the fact that the Optimy solution is foundation-oriented helps in the whole process. “We thought of using internal software that could help with data collection, but it was not suitable for a foundation. We can see that the Optimy tool is created to adapt to foundations’ needs. Optimy helped us to be more aligned across our projects, and I like that it’s an online tool. With times we are living, the tool has a big positive impact on how we work as a team.”
