Automated Endowment Fund Reports Result in Quicker, More Streamlined Reporting 

by

A major Canadian University wanted to automate the process of reporting endowment fund expenditures to faculties. The proceeds of endowment funds are used to support academic scholarships, bursaries, and research projects, and are a major component of large academic institutions and their fundraising efforts. Efficient reporting of these funds, their income, expenditures, and unspent balances allows faculties to support the students, scholars, and projects as intended by the donors, while remaining fiscally responsible and avoiding overspending. The existing highly manual and time-consuming process meant that the fund expenditures and balances were often out of date and funds with infrequent activity could easily be forgotten.

A provider of real estate advisory services contacted Imaginet for support on a system we had built for them a few years ago (mostly built using Azure SQL). They have multiple databases that have monthly costs associated with them. Our client was looking for a cheaper solution as the monthly costs were quite significant. They also had an existing capacity agreement with Databricks, so our goal was to conduct a Databricks migration with our clients databases.   What We Did  We started from scratch and built all the coordinates and objects for our client’s architecture.
