Shri Gajanan Maharaj Sansthan (Trust) : IT to Strengthen Faith
To expand its scope of charitable services, this religious trust implemented ERP and raised the bar of accountability and transparency
Tuesday, May 06, 2008
The Shri Sant Gajanan Maharaj Trust (Trust) is located in Shegaon,
Maharashtra, and is the second largest pilgrimage destination in Western India.
This non-profit organization has vocational training centers, educational
institutes, schools for the mentally challenged, dispensaries, and health-camps.
Carrying out daily operations of the Trust, like managing volumes of donations
and channeling its proceeds wase a tedious job. This called for a solution that
would simplify processes, enhance operational efficiency, minimize the
cycle-time in transaction processing and ease the work pressure of its staff.
The transparent financial reporting was important to bolster the confidence of
its stakeholders. Finally, the Trust selected SAP ERP 6.0. The biggest challenge
during implementation came from the end users of the solution in terms of
change, for which, a changer management program was rolled out. Post deployment,
automated information exchange between departments about the material and cash
flow has simplified the process. The Trust now plans to extend this
implementation to other parts of its business.
