Get To A Board-ready Tech Roadmap In 6 Weeks
Blueprint turns tech overwhelm into a clear roadmap, clear ownership,
and a realistic investment plan your team can execute. No vendor noise. No stalled decisions. Just clarity.
Program Overview
What It Is
A focused, 6-week engagement where you get a board-ready tech roadmap, clear ownership roles, and a plan your team can execute immediately. We work side-by-side with your leadership team to turn tech chaos into strategy.
This is for nonprofits who know they need tech clarity but don't have that clear starting point in place. You walk away with a sequenced roadmap, a 12-month investment plan, and decision governance so choices don't stall.

What You Walk Away With
A Prioritized, Sequenced Roadmap
Not a wishlist. A real roadmap with clear owners, realistic timing, and simple success measures. Your team knows what comes first, what comes next, and why.
A Board-Ready Investment Plan
A 12-month plan for budget and resourcing. A single source of truth for what's approved, what's next, and why. Your board gets clarity; your team gets permission to move.
Clear Ownership and Decision Roles
So technology decisions don't stall, drift, or fall back onto the ED by default. Everyone knows who decides what and how.
Governance That Sticks
A simple cadence for keeping decisions moving. Quarterly reviews, monthly checkpoints, escalation paths—whatever fits your org. Not another endless meeting series; just enough rhythm to stay on track.
Templates, Checklists, and Practical Resources
Everything you need to execute. Decision frameworks, vendor evaluation checklists, roadmap templates, governance checklists. Built for your team to use.
How It Works
Weeks 1–5: Assessment & Strategy
- Week 1: Assessment — We interview your leadership team, review your current tech stack, and understand your constraints (budget, capacity, mission priorities). You walk away with a clear assessment and a draft roadmap outline.
- Weeks 2–5: Strategy Development — We work through roadmap prioritization, ownership clarity, governance, and investment planning. Each week builds toward a complete plan. Your team is in the room for all of it—this is collaborative, not consultative.
Week 6 & Beyond
- Week 6: Board Presentation & Handoff — You have a board-ready presentation. We help you present it. You walk away with everything you need to execute.
- After Week 6 — You have a roadmap and a governance rhythm. You're executing. If you want ongoing strategic partnership (vendor decisions, emerging tech, major pivots), that's where our Nonprofit Tech Strategy Retainer comes in. Many Blueprint clients convert to a retainer for sustained guidance.
Pricing & Sizing
Pricing depends on organizational size and complexity:
- Small nonprofits (15–30 staff): $7,500
- Mid-size nonprofits (30–75 staff): $10,000
- Larger or complex organizations (75+ staff, multiple locations, legacy tech debt): $12,500
All packages are 6 weeks and include the same framework and deliverables. The difference is depth of stakeholder engagement and scope of tech landscape assessment.

FAQs
Who is this for?
Growing nonprofits (typically 15–75 staff) that need a board-ready tech roadmap, clear ownership, and a practical plan they can execute without adding chaos.
What's included?
You'll receive a guided, step-by-step program that covers tech landscape assessment, strategy development, stakeholder engagement, and a clear, actionable roadmap.
The program includes live sessions with an expert facilitator, practical templates and checklists, and support tailored to your organization's specific needs.
We'll also flag practical opportunities for responsible automation where it fits, without hype.
How much time is required?
Smaller organizations: 1-2 hours per week in live sessions plus light homework. Larger/more complex organizations: 3-5 hours per week. We work with your schedule and capacity to make this fit.
What if we're worried about time or bandwidth?
We know nonprofit life is unpredictable. If you need to pause, adjust the pace, or want us to take a more active role, we're here to help. You can switch from the guided Blueprint to a hands-on consulting or implementation engagement at any time—just ask.
Is there ongoing support after the program?
Yes! After completing the Blueprint, you'll have the option to continue working with us through our Nonprofit Tech Strategy Retainer program which starts at $3,300/month (twice-monthly strategy meetings, ongoing advisory). Many Blueprint clients use the retainer to stay on track and navigate emerging tech, vendor decisions, and organizational changes.
What if we're not ready for a retainer?
No problem. Blueprint gives you everything you need to execute. If you want strategic guidance later, you know where to find us.
