3Spheres Call For Proposals

Sorry, the 2008 3Spheres application deadline for Non-Profits to receive expert help in improving their organization's processes has passed. Please apply in August 2009.

JDQ Systems Inc. would like to donate their expertise to a lower-mainland based non-profit organization.

Whatever your organization's focus and challenges, JDQ's process improvement methodologies can vastly help. As experts in quality systems, project management and software applications, our interventions result in improved efficiency, increased satisfaction, and greater revenue.

This opportunity is part of JDQ's highly successful 3Spheres of Reciprocity™ program. 3Spheres™ is JDQ's model for the development and sustenance of mutually beneficial relationships between the community, business and academia. It is a paradigm grown from the fundamental understanding that only through the symbiosis of the spheres of Helping, Profiting and Learning can we all thrive. JDQ is committed to a sustainable culture of Win-Win relationships.

To be eligible for this opportunity, an organization must be:

Based in the lower mainland, with preferably neighborhood focused programs.
A registered non-profit.

…and agree to the following:
The project term would be limited to 90 days.
There will be no expectation that JDQ will continue to have a relationship with the client after the project is completed.
The project is to be clearly defined with proscribed measurable outcomes.
All participants in the project will sign a win-win agreement that clearly identifies goals and responsibilities.
There will be no objection to JDQ speaking about these experiences with others including the media.
The non-profit organization has the resources to fulfill such a project.

JDQ agrees to provide project management, leadership and the necessary expertise to fulfill the aim of the project. To that end, JDQ will ensure that the project is managed with the same rigor as any other JDQ project.

Deadline for applications is midnight, September 19th, 2008. The recipient organization will be selected and notified by October 10th, 2008. The initiative will begin in early November 2008.
