The client

A multi-site Chicago youth development nonprofit

The organization supports youth-serving community programs with varied program and funder-reporting requirements. Its name has been withheld for confidentiality.

The challenge

Disconnected data and manual reporting

The organization needed consistent registration, attendance, activity and reporting workflows across multiple groups and funded programs.

The solution

A purpose-built program database

TTS created and supported a system for registration, attendance, participant and volunteer records, outcomes, audit views and reporting exports.

What changed

A reporting system that evolved with the programs

The platform centralized program information and created repeatable workflows as programs, fiscal rules and reporting requirements changed.

~30

Groups reported

Later project records document reporting for approximately 30 groups.

Monthly

Reporting workflows

Repeatable summaries aligned to program needs.

Quarterly

Reporting exports

Structured output for funding and program requirements.

Ongoing

System refinement

Workflows adapted as programs and reporting rules changed.

Operational impact

The organization gained a centralized system for participant, volunteer, attendance, activity, outcome and reporting information across multiple programs and groups.

Over time, TTS added duplicate prevention, program-plan and staff-tracking functions, audit views, age and participation breakouts, historical migrations, backups, affiliate setup, exports and user training.
