IN PRACTICE / ABLE HQ

Small team.
Big mission.
One HQ.

A nonprofit runs on people who care. The system should help them carry the work.

See the system in action
  1. Good people. Fragmented work.

    A small team and volunteers were keeping a big mission moving. But the work was fragmented. ABLE needed a shared home for the details behind its programs, relationships, and responsibilities.

  2. Give the mission an operating home.

    Andra built ABLE HQ to bring donors, programs, grants, meetings, and reporting into one connected workspace—shaped around the organization and the people doing the work.

  3. See the work. Carry it forward.

    Donor records sit alongside follow-up workflows. Programs, grants, and meetings have a shared place. Reporting brings the picture together. A practical foundation for coordinating the work as a team.

    HANDOVER + AGREED SUPPORT

Project duration depends on scope, access to your tools, and review availability. Your proposal sets the timeline; a target launch date helps us plan it.

BEFORE WE START

A few clear answers.

Who is HowOps for?

Founders, solopreneurs, small teams, and nonprofit leaders who need clearer operations, connected workflows, or a working home for their organization.

Do I need to know exactly what to build?

No. Start with the work that feels slow, scattered, or too dependent on you. An audit can help define what to tackle first.

What does it cost?

Audits, implementation projects, and retainers are custom-quoted. The proposal defines the scope, fee, and any separate software costs before you commit. Tell us what you need.

How long does a project take?

There is no single duration for every engagement. The timeline is agreed during scoping and reflects the workflows involved, required access, data preparation, and your team’s review schedule.

Can we keep the tools we already use?

We start by looking at your current tools and how your team uses them. Any recommended changes, integrations, or additional subscriptions are discussed as part of the scope.

Is HQ something I can buy off the shelf?

HQ is a HowOps product adapted to the organization. ABLE and WISE are distinct implementations. Your version would be scoped around your work.

What happens after a build?

Handover and documentation are defined in the project scope. If you need continued refinement, operations support, or coaching, we can discuss a monthly retainer.

Can I ask a question without booking a call?

Yes. Send an inquiry here or email contact@howopsconsulting.com.
