I recently became acquainted with the work of Sector Three Services (S3S), which provides “sustainable nonprofit IT solutions.” S3S has only been around for about a year, but in that short time is gaining momentum both in number of clients served and in the benefit it provides to those clients.

In my view, there are two primary things that separate S3S from similar competitors. First, it has a strong strategic vision that places its primary emphasis on using technology to strengthen and accomplish mission-related goals for the client.

Second, though it has not yet received official non-profit status, S3S has established itself as a non-profit and operates from that mindset. S3S would be legitimately pleased if every client swiftly outgrew the need for its capabilities—though its strategic viewpoint is so valuable I doubt that would ever entirely be the case.

S3S’s target market is the Washington DC/National Capital Region, but it is worth pointing out that many national non-profits of various sizes are headquartered in the area. It is doubly worth pointing out that S3S need not be on site to provide a broad technology strategy survey and assessment that would be valuable to any non-profit and provides multiple discussion points for internal strategy reflection.
