Sahayak

Helping NGOs improve organisational efficiency by outsourcing support functions and processes. We design and enable services for compliance, F&A, HR and other support functions to increase operational efficiencies and reduce administrative costs.

Social organisations face multiple challenges of skills, resources and bandwidth. Outsourcing support services through the Sahayak programme helps them focus more on service delivery and core operations.

Through this programme, NGOs get specialised non-domain services. The service provider will handle all your support functions, record keeping, and processes related to Finance and Accounting, Compliance, HR and MIS. This will ensure your organisation is easily able to follow best practices like a well-administered NGO.

Service outcomes for your NGO

  • Compliance: Fulfil and update all legal compliances and regulations of the government, corporate donors and statutory bodies on NGO’s behalf and renew them as they become due
  • Finance & Accounting:  Facilitate to keep and update every financial process and record in your organization. Manage all your financial reporting to the government, corporates, donors, auditors and civil society.
  • Human Resource Management: Set up, monitor and maintain HR processes in your NGO, as per government and funder norms. Building your manuals and processes to the highest standards in the sector.
