Built for What's Happening Right Now
We're the technology firm that was built for this moment. Not one trying to catch up to it.
We help mission-driven organizations save time and resources through smart technology
So you can focus on what matters most.
Why We Started
Scottship Solutions started with a pattern we kept seeing.
Break-fix IT providers charging clients for problems they caused. Software companies pitching expensive tools to nonprofit leaders who couldn’t get basic questions answered. IT vendors hiding behind contracts designed to protect themselves, not their clients.
We watched good organizations make bad technology decisions because they didn’t have anyone in their corner. Not because they were unsophisticated. Because an entire industry had no incentive to serve them well.
That needed to change.
We started as a strategy and consulting firm focused on helping nonprofits make smarter technology decisions. Then the pandemic changed everything. Overnight, every organization moved to the cloud. But the IT providers nonprofits relied on didn’t follow. They were still built for on-premise servers and break-fix tickets. Suddenly, nonprofits managing children’s health records, donor databases, and program data had no one keeping their cloud infrastructure secure or compliant. We found organizations out of HIPAA compliance with their IT provider nowhere to be found. That was the moment we expanded from consulting into full managed IT support. Not because it was a business opportunity. Because someone had to.
The Gap We Fill
Mission-driven organizations were either left to figure out technology alone or taken advantage of by providers who exploited their limited tech knowledge. We exist to close that gap.
Mission-Driven Team
Our team comes from enterprise software, Fortune 500 consulting, and global technology delivery. They chose this work because they wanted it to matter.
Built in the AI Era
Most technology firms serving nonprofits were founded when the biggest challenge was setting up a file server. We launched with AI as a core capability, not an afterthought.
Enterprise Thinking, Nonprofit Pricing
Being a young firm doesn’t mean being an inexperienced one. We bring enterprise rigor to organizations that have been told they don’t need it. When your technology partner is learning AI at the same pace you are, that’s not a partner. That’s a classmate.
Fractional CIO Leadership
Strategic IT leadership, technology roadmaps, vendor evaluation, and board-level reporting. The CIO you need at a fraction of the cost.
Managed IT Support
Day-to-day helpdesk, monitoring, infrastructure management. Fixed monthly pricing. No break-fix billing from 2005.
Cybersecurity
Compliance programs, security assessments, and incident response built for nonprofit budgets and the data you're responsible for protecting.
AI and Automation
Grant writing, donor communications, document processing, data analysis. AI that's running in production, not proof of concepts.
Efficient and Modernized
We help organizations stop patching outdated systems and start operating on infrastructure built for how they work today.
Common Questions
Do you have a physical office?
We’re remote-first, registered in Lewes, Delaware. Our model lets us hire the best talent nationwide and keep costs lower than firms paying for office space in every city. You get better people, not closer ones.
How big does our nonprofit need to be?
We work with nonprofits at every stage, from growing teams to organizations with hundreds of staff. If your technology needs have outpaced your current IT setup, we’re built for that moment.
What types of nonprofits do you work with?
Human services, healthcare, education, arts and culture, advocacy, faith-based, and foundations. If you’re mission-driven and technology is holding you back, we’re built for you.
How do you charge?
Fixed monthly pricing built for nonprofit budgets. No hourly billing, no surprise invoices, no scope creep. Your finance team will appreciate the predictability.
What if we already have an IT person?
Good. Our fractional CIO works alongside your existing staff. We handle strategy, vendor management, and the big-picture decisions so your IT person can focus on keeping things running.
