WHAT YOU CAN BUILD ON.

01

Microsoft Tech for Social Impact

Direct access to the Microsoft TSI programme and to discounted non-profit licences — we check your eligibility and guide you through the registration process.

02

Proven standard

The HAFN Standard Workplace is a documented template from Microsoft 365 projects — typical onboarding time 4–6 weeks, without IT knowledge required on your side.

03

Fixed price instead of day rate

Implementation at a fixed price, operation as a monthly flat fee. Predictable for the board, the head office and funders.

04

Microsoft Solutions Partner

Modern Work, Security, Infrastructure Azure and Digital & App Innovation Azure. Azure Infrastructure Migration specialisation.

What you probably recognise

BUDGET TIGHT,
TRUST HIGH,
ROOM TO MANOEUVRE SMALL.

The budget is tight, the trust of funders is high, and a data breach is not an option. IT has to work reliably — without in-house expertise and without disproportionate costs.

No budget for in-house IT

An internal IT department is not affordable for most organisations. Every IT expense competes directly with the charitable purpose. That demands efficiency on a tight budget.

Outdated or unstructured environments

Many organisations already use Microsoft 365 — but historically grown, without clear governance and without a security concept. The result: data-protection risks, uncontrolled sharing, no overview.

Data protection for sensitive groups

Social data, member data, donation information: the GDPR hits non-profit organisations just as hard as companies — with the difference that a visible data breach damages the reputation lastingly.

Licence costs without clarity

Microsoft offers considerable discounts for non-profit organisations — but the path there is complex. Many organisations pay full licence prices unnecessarily because access to the TSI programme is missing.

Turnover among volunteers and team

Volunteers come and go, staff change. Every on- and offboarding costs time — without structured IT management, security gaps grow through orphaned accounts and uncontrolled access.

AI is coming — but the basis is missing

Copilot and AI tools promise real efficiency gains for lean teams. But AI accesses everything users have access to. Without a clean basis, AI becomes a risk instead of a help.

The way

TWO STEPS.
ONE PREDICTABLE IT.

HAFN Standard creates the secure basis. HAFN Betrieb maintains it for the long term. Together they make IT as predictable as your project budgets.

Phase 1 · Implementation

HAFN STANDARD WORKPLACE

4–6 weeks · Fixed price

Your Microsoft 365 environment is built to a proven standard: a Zero Trust security model, uniform device management via Intune, a data-protection-compliant base configuration. Including activation of the discounted Microsoft non-profit licences and full documentation of all decisions.

Goal Phase 2 · Managed Service

HAFN BETRIEB WORKPLACE

monthly · scalable

We take over ongoing operation with modular service modules: Tenant Administration, Managed Workplace, Backup, Workplace Governance. Monthly reporting — transparent for the board and funders, understandable even without an IT background.

Discounted CSP licences

MORE MICROSOFT
FOR LESS BUDGET.

As a CSP partner with access to the Microsoft Tech for Social Impact (TSI) programme, we make sure your organisation receives and uses the discounted licence conditions. For eligible non-profit organisations, considerable price advantages are possible — often an order of magnitude below the regular list price.

Microsoft 365 Business Premium for Non-Profits

A complete productivity and security solution at heavily discounted conditions — for eligible non-profit organisations.

Eligibility check & TSI onboarding

We check whether your organisation meets the requirements and guide you through the Microsoft TSI registration process — so you do not have to navigate the paperwork alone.

Ongoing licence management in HAFN Betrieb

No licence chaos: we manage your licence assignment in ongoing operation — traceable monthly, scalable on growth or seasonal fluctuations.

Benefits

WHAT HAFN MEANS FOR
NON-PROFIT ORGANISATIONS
IN CONCRETE TERMS.

Predictability instead of IT surprises

Fixed prices for implementation, monthly flat fees for operation. You know exactly what you pay — and what is done for it. IT becomes budgetable, also for the board and funders.

A fast start thanks to HAFN Standard

No long concept project. The HAFN Standard is a proven template that we set up for your organisation — typically ready to use in 4–6 weeks, without IT knowledge required on your side.

Scalable with your organisation

New projects, new staff, new volunteers: our operating model grows and shrinks with you. Licences are adjusted, access is managed — without extra effort for you.

GDPR compliance without ongoing effort

Workplace Governance continuously monitors whether your environment complies with the defined data-protection policies. Oversharing, orphaned guest accounts, anonymous links — are detected before they become a problem.

AI use on a secure basis

Microsoft Copilot is a real lever for lean teams. We create the data basis on which AI works securely — and accompany you into AI-supported collaboration.

Dedicated contacts, real responsibility

No ticket system, no anonymous hotline. Your HAFN team knows your environment and takes responsibility — so you can focus on your mission, not on IT problems.

Frequently asked questions

EVERYTHING POINTS TO HAFN,
BUT …?

Are we too small for HAFN as a non-profit organisation?

No — our scalable model is built exactly for organisations that do not bring a large IT department. Whether 10 or 300 users: HAFN Standard and HAFN Betrieb adapt to your size. With fixed prices, the cost structure stays manageable.

Are we even eligible for discounted licences?

We check that together — free and quickly. Microsoft provides considerable discounts for eligible organisations. Many of our customers did not know they were eligible. We guide you through the TSI programme and CSP activation.

Who looks after the IT if no one here has a clue?

That is exactly what HAFN Betrieb is for. You need no in-house IT knowledge — we take responsibility for ongoing operation. With dedicated contacts, clear services and monthly reporting that is understandable even for non-IT people.

We already use Microsoft 365 — but chaotically. What now?

That is the most common starting point. The HAFN Standard also works as a retrofit: we analyse your existing environment, clean up historically grown structures and move everything into a documented, secure basis — without interrupting operation.

Can we cancel monthly?

Yes — all HAFN Betrieb service modules can be cancelled monthly. If your situation changes, we adjust the service package easily.
