Case Study: The Task Force for Global Health achieves dramatic administrative time savings and faster reporting with Smartsheet

NGO’s New Process Is a Game Changer for Global Health

The Task Force for Global Health is a 160‑person nonprofit with 14 programs focused on controlling, eliminating, and eradicating neglected tropical diseases across nearly 200 projects in 55 countries. Administrative overhead and fragmented information slowed research and donor reporting—finding needed data could take days and producing annual donor reports could take months—so the organization needed a way to consolidate information, standardize reporting, and visualize program data.

They piloted and then rolled out Smartsheet to centralize end‑to‑end project tracking, create dashboards, and share real‑time data. The platform cut search time from days to minutes, shortened reporting from months to weeks, improved decision‑making with visualized data, and gave field teams better access to information—freeing staff to spend more time on research and programming toward WHO elimination targets.
