Village Fund
From Manual to Digital:Transforming Data Management for Thailand’s Village Fund
Business Analysis and BI Dashboard Development
Project Overview
Embarked on an innovative project to digitalize the internal information of financial transactions within each village and their financial statements, which were previously reported to the Village Fund Office on paper. This project aimed to streamline these processes through a user-friendly mobile application and a comprehensive BI dashboard. By encouraging villagers to use the app, we sought to digitalize their information and provide them with a powerful tool to forecast and manage their financial data effectively. This initiative particularly benefited senior citizens with minimal technological exposure.
