Long-term data platform partnerships. Nonprofit data work is not a one-time project. Infrastructure needs to evolve as programs grow, grants renew, and staff turn over. Our relationship with NLx (National Labor Exchange) has run for over 5 years. We built and maintain their data warehouse, API interfaces, and distribution infrastructure for labor market data that serves stakeholders nationwide. That work supported a major three-year foundation grant.
Cost-effective, modern infrastructure. Every dollar on infrastructure is a dollar not on mission. We select tools that minimize total cost of ownership without sacrificing capability. At NLx, we reduced TCO for a public data dashboard to under $25K per year while serving terabytes with near-instant latency. At a community development nonprofit, we automated impact reporting that previously required days of manual assembly.
Secure research data pipelines. Research organizations handle sensitive data (survey responses, PII, encrypted fields) that requires architectural separation between analytical and identifiable layers. At a global research nonprofit, we built data extraction across 5 production survey platform instances with encrypted data handling and PII separation baked into the design.
Custom platforms for mission-critical work. For a nonprofit providing remote counseling services, we built a custom video platform that expanded service reach to previously unreachable populations and helped secure new grant funding.
