OFC needed a secure, scalable solution to manage grant applications across 14 member nations in the Pacific. We digitised their application, approval, and reporting processes, reducing manual processing time by 75%.

The Opportunity

Grants fund vital development programmes across the Pacific. OFC's existing process relied on manual entry, complex paper trails, and back-and-forth communication. Efficiency, security, and compliance were all at risk.

What We Built

A centralised platform where every funding request is tracked, audited, and verified. The system supports 14 Member Associations and over 250 users, with automated tracking and approval workflows that eliminated administrative delays.

The Outcome

Over $20M in grants processed. Manual workload reduced 75%. OFC now has the digital infrastructure to support football development and community initiatives across the Pacific for years to come.
RIVER has been an incredible partner. They are incredibly responsive, always ready to adapt. Their support has been critical to our evolving needs.
