Pioneers
Helpcode project partners are selected
and assessed carefully to ensure that they
offer added value for implementation of our
projects in various countries. The focus in
these projects is always on the beneficiaries,
and the Association chooses its partners on
the basis of their ability to offer real benefits
for them.
In 2020-2021 our work with project partners
in Italy aims to develop and extend the
Association’s activities, while the goal
abroad is to pursue projects already underway
and achieve their specified goals.
Helpcode project partners are subject to the
same auditing methods as the Association
itself, described in section 2.3.
2.6 Suppliers
Helpcode selects its suppliers on the basis of specific procurement procedures,
prepared in compliance with the standards set by the principal institutional donors
with which the Association works in Italy and abroad.
Purchasing procedures involve different supplier selection methods depending on the value
of the supply (direct purchase, single quotations, negotiated procedures or international
competition). The Association’s goal in procurement is ensuring selection of the best offer at
the lowest possible cost, with the utmost transparency.
The organisation’s goal for the year 2020 was to renew and update its procedures, with the
aid of a specialised consulting firm, to adapt its operating models to comply with international
standards of transparency. This goal was achieved.
Helpcode’s goal for the year 2021 is to integrate its procurement procedures with
requirements focusing specifically on the environment. The Association has also begun a
process of assessment of the Association’s principal suppliers.
2.7 Public opinion and the media
The goal for 2020 was beginning organic communication of the Organisation’s
positioning and key themes, in order to consolidate the Association’s image in
public opinion, with a specific focus on the local area.
Helpcode’s activities, particularly those involved in emergency response (Doposcuola a Distanza
homework club), were in fact thoroughly covered in the media (more than 100 items of media
coverage). But reinforcement of the Association’s local roots suffered as a result of the
restrictions imposed on events and meetings.
The goal for 2021 is to reinforce communication of the Association’s key themes and positioning,
making up for the ground lost in 2020.
