Final Report

Abstract

As reduction in both donor support and staff productivity increases, Alianza Latina USA needs to adjust its own internal technical capabilities; allowing for a means improving both communication and collaboration across our four international offices. We see this need being met by instituting an enhanced Video Teleconference (VTC) System in all four offices to help improve collaboration and communications between our employees and with our prospective donors. Today, Alianza Latina Technical Assistants residing in Latin America are making strenuous coordination efforts to coordinate and collaborate between the different geographical regions in Latin America and with the headquarters based in Washington, DC. Their solution to this problem is to effectively integrate a Video Conference System (VCS) Platform solution. The proposal that the CIO submitted to the Board of Alianza Latina consists of explaining that the Cisco Video Conference Software will enhance communication with donors by means of sharing digital content, using language translators, among other things.
