Case Study: 501Ops streamlines nonprofit operations and saves 150 hours a month with Excellarate

Integrated, enterprise solution for nonprofit programs, donors and volunteer management

501Ops, a nonprofit operations platform founded by Peter Swanson, needed help streamlining strained back-office processes, speeding up development, and reducing costly manual work. Excellarate supported the organization’s web application and reporting environment, including its LAMP/Laravel stack on AWS, with tools such as Periscope for BI and integrations with OwnCloud and payment providers.

Excellarate analyzed the existing systems, improved documentation and development workflows, advised on BI and tooling, and automated repetitive back-office tasks using RPA. The result was faster delivery, lower cloud and tool ownership costs, and a reduction of 150 manual person-hours per month by eliminating a 28-step Salesforce data upload process.
