2 » Management Information Systems for NGOs The outline 1. The rationale performance orientation 2. NGOs in Poland 3. Information database for NGOs 4. Performance metrics 5. Management information in practise of Polish NGOs (international perspective) 6. Conclusion 2
3 » The rationale (1/3) NGOs are perceived in a WRONG CONTEXT: Charities (from Latin caritas = mercy) are associated with people in need being rescued by organizations which need public support NGOs belong to the nonprofit making category, and thus do not provide their stakeholders with financial benefits» Public benefit organisations contribute to social wellbeing, and the donors are convinced that their social investment pays off in the future» NGOs do generate social value added which can be detected not only in social services provided to people in need, but also in building human capital of a civil society 3
4 » The rationale (2/3) Performance Oriented Management in NGOs Non-profit institutions tend not to give priority to performance and results. Yet performance and results are far more important and far more difficult to measure and control in the non-profit institutions than in businesses P.F. Drucker» What is then a proper measure of success in organisations, which by definition do not generate profit or maximise market and shareholder values? 4
5 » The rationale (3/3) Exchange transactions in commercial and non-commercial organisations financial, material and human resources BUSINESS products and services Owners (shareholders) Managers Employees Customers payment (and satisfaction) payment (and satisfacrion) Founders Donors Volunteers Supporters financial, material and human resources satisfaction NGO Members Managers Employees services and support satisfaction Beneficiaries 5
6 » Non-governmental organisations in Poland (1/2) The historical context» since medieval times: Roman Catholic Church institutions» Post-war Poland: social policy is reserved to public institutions which not only fulfil social needs, but virtually define them» 1980: independent association of trade unions: NSZZ Solidarność is founded» 1980s: reborn social organisations - together with international NGOs - fight with deepening impoverishment» after 1989: NGOs advocate for democratization in public life and for introducing economic and social reforms» 2003: consolidation of the Third Sector (Act on Public Benefit Organizations and Voluntarism) 6
7 » Non-governmental organisations in Poland (2/2) Public benefit status support of the State Measure Fundraising activities Scope possibility to obtain 1% of personal income tax (on general and project-related purposes) Tax exemptions - corporate income tax, - tax on real estate and land, - tax on civil-legal acts - administration and court fees Cost cutting - voluntary service - leasing state-owned properties at special terms - broadcasting announcements and promotion materials in public media out of charge Donors support reduced tax basis by value of donations to PBOs or organisations fulfilling similar activities: - up to 6% of income in case of individuals - up to 10% in case of legal persons 7
8 Finance Social environment» Information database for NGOs (1/3) Area Information needs Reflection in information and reporting systems - demand for social services not covered: some analyses are - scope of meeting community needs made by umbrella organisations - requirements of stakeholders of the third sector, the - available resources: financial and human Department of Public Benefit at - sources for financing statutory activities the Ministry of Labour and - business partners and community Social Policy, or by researchers supporters - available funds, organisation s assets - revenues on statutory activities - donations, income on NGO s properties - cost of statutory activities - administration cost - liabilities - income on fundraising activities and their cost - cost of social programs and projects covered: financial statements of non-commercial organisations; annual accounts of foundations and public benefit organisations (PBOs) partially covered: voluntary extension to foundations and PBOs reporting 8
9 Human resources» Information database for NGOs (2/3) Area Information needs Reflection in information and reporting systems - organisation members covered: annual accounts of - paid staff (incl. office personnel and foundations and PBOs; reports managers) submitted to Central Statistical - personal cost (incl. administration) Office - number of volunteers - statutory tasks performed by organisation members and volunteers - staff qualifications and those of managers - staff training including that of managers and volunteers - staff rotation, sustainability of volunteer support - satisfaction of staff and volunteers - market equivalent of community work partially covered: might be referred to in reporting on tasks contracted with public institutions not covered: some analyses are made by umbrella organisations of the NGO sector 9
10 Donors and supporters Beneficiaries» Information database for NGOs (3/3) Area Information needs Reflection in information and reporting systems - number of beneficiaries (incl. those partially covered: voluntary who pay for services) extension to foundations and PBOs - number of new beneficiaries reporting; might be referred to in - satisfaction of beneficiaries reporting on tasks contracted with public institutions - value of donations covered: financial statements of non-commercial organisations; annual accounts of foundations and PBOs - number of donors (incl. long-term supporters) - social profile of donors - motivation of donors partially covered: voluntary extension to foundations and PBOs reporting not covered: some analyses are made by umbrella organisations of the third sector 10
11 » Performance metrics (1/2) Application problems Problem I» NGOs tend to focus on quantitative, in particular financial, figures which are easy to collect and interpret» The significant part of input and output is non-monetary, though, and is not registered by accounting systems Problem II» The reports on NGO s activity, which include quantitative and qualitative information are integrated in a very subjective way» The integration of monetary, quantitative and qualitative information in a single report require adequate valuation non-monetary input and output 11
