NON-PROFIT & PUBLIC MANAGEMENT

Non-profit Management

Non-profit organisations are becoming more and more important in the public eye but, at the same time, are under increased pressure to succeed. Services have to be rendered faster and made more transparent, customers and employees demand more service quality and faster delivery, while financiers call for justification of the way funds are used.

Contrast Management-Consulting offers NPOs special solutions and support for strategy development right up to assistance in specific change processes. We have instruments and procedures at our disposal that have been created especially for NPOs and so safeguard the long-term effect of our consulting services and the success of the project for the NPOs.

Public Management

The public sector increasingly faces the challenge to meet growing expectations with limited means. While in times of economic uncertainty the scarcity of resources becomes obvious, target groups of public services demand more and more. The need for new management in the public sector thus becomes evident. Effective and target-oriented management of tax revenue is turning into a key item of public interest.

Contrast Management-Consulting advises governments, authorities, public agencies, spun-off entities and public-sector enterprises. We are equally active on a federal, provincial and regional level as we are on an international level (e.g. for United Nations agencies).

Health

Managers of health organisations are tangled up in a web of different interests and expectations with often scarce resources. The pressure will increase in future: 90% of Austrian hospital managers, for instance, expect a (strong) rise in pressure in the years to come [1].

Contrast Management-Consulting supports providers of health services (in particular hospitals, hospital groups, rehabilitation and care institutions), social insurance and other system partners of the health sector in handling change projects and the further development of their business systems.
