Acumen Solutions and Vera Solutions Announce Partnership to Deliver Transformative Solutions for Impact-Driven Organizations
MCLEAN, VA. (PRWEB) November 20, 2020 — Acumen Solutions and Vera Solutions today announced a new strategic partnership to help nonprofits, grantmakers, and impact investors measure impact and more effectively manage the lifecycle of programs, projects, grants, and investment. The experience and service delivery excellence of Acumen Solutions, a Top 10 Salesforce partner, combined with Vera Solutions’ Amp Impact solution, a Salesforce-based application, provide an unmatched solution offering for impact-driven organizations.
This newly formed partnership will allow the Amp Impact solution to be implemented at scale by Acumen Solutions’ team of subject matter experts and Salesforce architects who have deep platform and industry experience. Acumen Solutions has implemented program management, fundraising, and engagement/marketing solutions for numerous large, complex, nonprofit organizations.
With the partnership, Acumen Solutions and Vera Solutions will help enterprise nonprofit organizations achieve:
- A 360-degree view of portfolio impact: One central tool for portfolio impact data to improve day-to-day operations and decision-making.
- Streamlined processes: Save staff time and headaches with powerful features and automation throughout the program, project or grant lifecycle.
- Cross-sector collaboration: Collaborate on portfolio data more efficiently and facilitate data-sharing between implementers and funders.
“We recognize that speed and scalability are critical when it comes to digital transformation for impact-driven organizations. In the past, we have found that custom building a program management or impact measurement solution can often be one of the most time consuming and costly components of this process,” said Jim Herzog, managing director at Acumen Solutions. “Amp Impact provides a pre-built solution that meets the majority of most clients’ needs, allowing us to configure the remaining requirements. This quickly accelerates the time-to-value, providing a more scalable solution.”
“We’re thrilled to partner with Acumen Solutions to help more organizations leverage Amp Impact,” said Zak Kaufman, co-founder and CEO of Vera Solutions. “We have long admired Acumen Solutions’ breadth of technical and sector expertise. In addition to serving as an implementation partner for Amp Impact, Acumen Solutions will be a valued knowledge partner for Vera Solutions in our work to continuously scale and improve Amp Impact to drive stronger accountability and data-informed decisions across the social sector.”
