Mumbai Mobile Crèches
Impact India Foundation
Impact India is a part of an international initiative
against avoidable disablement.
The organisation consulted with TCS for their
Community Health Initiatives. TCS recommended
the development of an MIS to reach their curative
and preventive measures. This system was
subsequently developed by TCS to help track
success against targets and improve traceability and
accountability for the ground staff as well as the
management team.
The system enhanced the Foundation’s ability to
quantify activities from a perspective of Social Return on Investment (SROI) by accurate articulation of
Inputs, Tangible Outputs, Measurable Outcomes and Socio/Economic Impact. It also enhanced accuracy
in reporting of the programme to Donors, Management and other stakeholders and therefore provide
the visibility of a Single Truth across the programme. The system provides measurement of “Disability
Reduction” in that geography and a trend analysis across regions within the geography to identify
similarities, changes and developments. It also tracks key performance indicators (KPI) to ensure that
the programme is sustainable and replicable.

Mumbai Mobile Crèches
TCS analyzed the internal tools and the business needs
of Mumbai Mobile Crèches and designed an Inventory
Solution to assist them in capturing their monthly
quarter spend per centre as well as the derive cost per
child. TCS also designed a comprehensive Donor
Management system which also included a provision for
tracking repeat donations.
Volunteering at TCS- Maitree
The employee engagement arm of TCS was enhanced to
include socially relevant activities. The approach to
social initiatives entails being proactively involved and
working at the grassroot level. The projects undertaken
include aiding underprivileged children across various
schools in India and helping rural communities at
Panvel (Maharashtra), Nainar (Chennai), Padmapur
(Odisha) and Challera (New Delhi). In FY 2011, TCS
associates reached out to 3500 beneficiaries in 5
villages.
TCS associates have developed a sustainable model to
improve education, healthcare and the environment of
these villages. In Panvel, Maharashtra, and Nainer
Chennai, TCS associates were engaged in primary and
secondary school education. Women in Panvel
underwent a paper product certification program by
Jan Sikshan Sansthan (Raigad) which enables them to
procure loans from banks.
