How the CDC Foundation Modernized and Automated Its Business Processes: A Digital Transformation Story

As a large organization raising over $1.25B for the Centers for Disease Control, the CDC Foundation grew to depend primarily on manual and paper-based processes. Through a major Digital Transformation initiative, the Foundation sought to modernize its operations and replace legacy processes with best-of-breed cloud solutions such as Salesforce CRM, NetSuite ERP, ADP HCM, SAP Concur, Celigo iPaaS, and much more.

Join us as Malcolm James, Senior Technology and Business Solutions Manager at the CDC Foundation, for a candid conversation discussing how CDCF successfully approached and executed the automation of its legacy processes, just in time to manage the 5-fold increase in transactions it experienced due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Topics include:

  • The challenges faced by growing organizations like the CDC Foundation
  • Navigating their Digital Transformation initiative and selecting the right cloud-based tools
  • The pivotal role of integration and automation
  • Results, insights, and best practices based on the successful experience

In addition to learning about CDC Foundation’s digital transformation journey, we will also be running in parallel a fundraiser to help raise $7,500 for the Foundation’s CRUSH COVID campaign.
