Organization Gap Analysis
Order Description
A variety of factors may influence the operations of a human services organization and the ability to carry out organizational programs and services effectively. A gap analysis can provide human service administrators with a comparison of organizational performance of similar organizations. For example, a soup kitchen may find that its meal schedule conflicts with another soup kitchen, which results in less availability of food resources for hungry families. A gap analysis also informs human services administrators about areas of improvement in programs and services while also identifying areas of redundancy and overlap.
