Case Study
Boys & Girls Clubs
At a glance
When the legacy system used by the Boys & Girls Clubs of Silicon Valley moved from an installed software to the cloud, the decision was made to switch to Salesforce. Simplus was contracted to perform the implementation.
The Challenge
The Boys & Girls Clubs of Silicon Valley was using an antiquated system. It required manual data entry and did not have a user-friendly interface. This caused increased time and effort by the staff to track donors and donations.
In addition, reporting had to be done manually, which left limited visibility into the data. The manual reporting process was time-consuming, and with manual data entry, the accuracy of the reports was often in question.
After researching several CRM tools, Salesforce was chosen as the best option. We were chosen due to the personalized nature of our project management approach.

The Outcome
BGCSV needed to move from their outdated system to Salesforce. After an analysis and design phase, we began with setup and configuration before moving into data import and consulting.
Because this was a fresh instance of Salesforce, we were asked to provide guidance on best practices and business processes. This included enhancements, features, and reporting that were recommended based on the unique needs of BGCSV.
As a result of the Salesforce implementation, reporting time was reduced by 80%, and data entry time was reduced over 50%.
