Tata Consultancy Services, a leading global IT services, consulting, and business solutions organization, announced that its corporate social responsibility (CSR) team in North America is adopting data driven insights to increase the reach and impact of its community initiatives.
Through a digital transformation project, TCS is now able to draw upon its vast data sets of community service projects and programs and rich contextual knowledge to provide meaningful insights that can improve collaboration, teamwork and contributions to community efforts.
Powering the project is the TCS Connected Intelligence Data Lake for Business, a cloud-based data lake solution that is helping TCS streamline its community outreach program planning by using past data to personalize volunteer engagement opportunities for employees and its customers. Volunteers can now receive tailored communications about upcoming service projects based on their history of volunteering, drivers of interest, and program outcomes.

The data lake also powers visualization tools and generates automated reports that help CSR team members prioritize resources based on local community needs and potential impact.
“In today’s data driven world, digital technologies can be harnessed to transform businesses while also empowering communities,” said Balaji Ganapathy, Head, Workforce Effectiveness, TCS. “This solution will help us transform CSR to be a more data-driven function, improving our volunteer experience, partner engagement and beneficiary outcomes.”
