Water for People Promotes Sustainable Water Access Globally with NetSuite OneWorld

Water for People is a nonprofit that brings together local entrepreneurs, civil society, governments and communities to establish creative, collaborative solutions that allow people to build and maintain their own reliable safe water systems. As its mission grew, the organization struggled with on-premise applications that made it difficult to track funding and expenses and required time and effort to consolidate disparate data sets in in-house IT systems.

Global Cloud System Fuels Mission

Global capabilities ensure access: Working with the NetSuite Social Impact team, Water for People implemented the NetSuite OneWorld solution to manage a host of nonprofit operations. The multi-language, multi-currency capabilities in OneWorld was an ideal fit to help the organizations manage operations across more than a dozen locations.

Real-time visibility and cost savings: With NetSuite, Water for People has improved financial visibility and control, and can tie financials to individual projects in 9 different countries with 11 currencies, which it consolidates monthly, improving reporting and donor relations, while the cloud-based system removes overhead for managing servers.

Agility provides flexibility: Water for People users around the world can access NetSuite OneWorld from anywhere at any time with a browser and an internet connection, while the ease of implementation and consolidation means business systems aren’t holding the organization back from opening operations as its needed.
