My proposal is to provide you with an Integrated Parish Management Solution which will synchronize all management processes including attendance records, church activities records , financial records, membership personal data etc. The need for a customized Integrated Parish Management Solution for the Church cannot be over emphasized because the solution will be tailored in solving your church’s unique needs. The Integrated Solution would deliver a single database containing data for the different software modules to be developed. The modules that would be developed are :
 Financial Module
-Manage Donations, Search Cash Expenses, Manage Offering Types, etc.
 Church Activity Module
-Would provide the functionality of Searching Past Activities, New Church Activity, Testimonies, New testimony, Manage Activity Types etc.
 Membership and People Management Module
–Would provide the functionality of Searching for Parish members, new members, Membership by Type, New Converts, Search for First-Timers, etc.
 Groups and Department Module
- Would Manage Groups, Manage Departments Activities, etc.
 Report Module
-would give Attendance report, Financial Report, Membership Detail Report, etc.
We are aware that your congregation members are your most valuable assets and aim to ensure that you are able to provide them with that personal and intimate care required for deep commitment and loyalty on the part of the parishioners. Our solution aims to aid the church in the following areas:
• Membership Personal Information Management
• Church performance analysis and Reporting
• Easy Access to All Information about Every Individual
