Database Services

Staff training
Targeted training sessions can provide a higher level of
understanding and raise the level of confidence among staff.

System analysis
A thorough analysis can be performed to identify the source of
problems that make data entry time consuming and hinder
reporting efforts.  The areas in which your organization is under
utilizing the system will also be highlighted.  After the analysis, a
clear plan will guide you through steps that will dramatically
improve your system.

Data Conversion
When your organization chooses to migrate data from a legacy
database to the Raiser’s Edge, Kheng Chow Consulting can
provide optimal data mapping which will ultimately result in the
ability to easily pull analytical reports on that data.  

The first step in the conversion process is to conduct a thorough
interview with staff and understand the purpose of each field and
code in the legacy database along with how they are used and
how often they are used.  These findings will determine the
proper placement of these fields and codes in the Raiser’s Edge.  
Codes with duplicate functions will be eliminated and a
comprehensive coding schema in the Raiser’s Edge will be
designed to meet the needs of your organization.

System customization
Update your database with new coding that will work with new
Development initiatives.  A dynamic fund-raising program calls
for a flexible and custom database to make it successful.

Data clean up
Code tables and other identified clean up from the system
analysis can be executed quickly and accurately.

Automate and streamline processes
Reduce the number of photocopies, avoid duplicate entries and
shorten the turn around time for acknowledgement letters
through an efficient process that will save your staff time.  

Documentation of protocol and procedures
Written documentation of all protocol and procedures can be
created to maintain data consistency over time.

Custom report writing using Crystal Reports
When the standard reports cannot provide the specific
information you need, custom reports can meet your business
needs with quality data in the desired format.
