Drowning in Tech? 6 Steps to a Roadmap That Clears the Fog and Drives Growth
Read Now >
Align Technology with Impact
To advance their missions, nonprofits must leverage multiple systems—from CRMs and financial solutions to ticketing and POS systems—and embrace new ways of working to effectively utilize resources and to digitally transform their operations.
But how do you break down silos to ensure these systems work together optimally, and align with your long-term goals?
Our Roadmap Services provide a clear path forward.
A Roadmap Built for Growth
A technology roadmap sits at the intersection of three critical disciplines:
Information Systems Design – Assess your current state and design a future-ready ecosystem.
Project Management – Break down initiatives into actionable projects with clear milestones.
Strategic Planning – Ensure leadership alignment and long-term vision.
It’s not just an IT project—it’s an organizational strategy.
Your Tech Strategy’s North Star
A roadmap isn’t just a plan—it’s a strategic compass that ensures every tech investment supports your mission.
✅ Drive Digital Transformation – Prioritize initiatives and navigate dependencies with confidence.
✅ Optimize Resources – Allocate budget and staff time efficiently.
✅ Maximize Impact – Focus on high-value projects that move the needle.
✅ Manage Change Effectively – Engage stakeholders and reduce resistance.
✅ Improve Efficiency – Break down silos and eliminate redundancies.
Who Benefits from a Technology Roadmap?
✔ Nonprofits managing multiple systems (CRM, fundraising, finance, etc.)
✔ Teams struggling with siloed data and inefficient workflows
✔ Leaders who want to align tech investments with mission impact
✔ Organizations undergoing digital transformation
Success Story
Chicago Humanities’ Project to Unify Siloed Systems
When the pandemic forced Chicago Humanities to rapidly adopt new tools, they ended up with 16 disconnected systems—making it nearly impossible to track donors, measure engagement, or work efficiently.
The solution? A strategic technology roadmap—a clear plan to unify systems, streamline operations, and deepen connections with their audience.
Read how Chicago Humanities turned fragmentation into clarity, paving the way for smarter growth and stronger impact.

One of the first things I did when I started in this role was to call JCA. I knew that we needed to overhaul our data management systems, and we wouldn’t have been able to do it without JCA’s support and expertise. Now we are ready to take our fundraising and donor management to the next level.

JCA Consulting was an exceptional partner to Union in our CRM search. The entire team has a wealth of expertise around technology, business practice, and project management. They guided us through assessment, planning, and vendor evaluation with expertise and efficiency.
Kathleen D. McCann, Director of Advancement Information Services
Union College
We really needed help in determining the best process and provider for a new CRM system. JCA was so thorough in spending time to get to know us and our short and long-term goals. The museum has evolved quite a bit over the years, so we needed more from our CRM to help us know and engage with our visitors better. JCA built our provider selection model with pros and cons, cost comparisons, and modification capacity. The process was intense, comprehensive, and successful. Thank you JCA!

Most of us in the nonprofit world have full plates. And often those plates become overflowing when tasked with huge undertakings. Sometimes we need outside help, and for a recent project, we turned to JCA. JCA's attention to detail, ability to listen, and to create lasting documentation keeps them at the top of their field. Without it, our project would have quickly overwhelmed our team and wouldn't have been as successful as it was.
Theresa Galaboff, Ticketing Database Administrator
The Field Museum
JCA was able to untangle how and why we use systems and offer a vision of a more streamlined future. The Needs Assessment not only served its practical purpose of documenting the technical requirements we have for a donor database, but it also validated a lot of the work that various team members were doing and gave them some relief that there were ways to lighten their loads.
Brittany Pyle, Director of Operations
It’s time to make the technical more personal.
