## A Lasting Digital Transformation, 7 Years in the Making

Since 2018, Kffein has accompanied the Association des camps du Québec (ACQ) through its digital transformation. From a complete website overhaul on Craft CMS to implementing a Zoho CRM that interfaces with its internal tools, every phase of the project unifies operations and simplifies day-to-day management.

## Context

The ACQ plays a central role in Quebec’s summer and day camp ecosystem—supporting, training, and certifying hundreds of organizations across the province. As its activities grew and mandates diversified, new digital needs emerged: optimizing member management, simplifying internal processes, and delivering a smooth online experience to families, camps, and partners.

On top of these challenges, the organization faces strong seasonal demands: certification, recruitment, summer operations, and membership renewals—all of which require reliable tools and careful planning.

## Challenges

The ACQ operates in an environment shaped by major critical periods (certifications, registrations, recruitment, and membership renewals), which demands reliable tools and a carefully planned product roadmap to ensure full availability at the right moment, without ever disrupting operations.

Our work aims to:

- Modernize and connect the digital ecosystem
- Centralize member, camp, event, and certification data
- Build operational tools aligned with real field needs
- Automate processes to improve efficiency
- Provide long-term strategic and operational support

Empowering the ACQ to drive its own transformation

### Craft CMS

A flexible and scalable web platform chosen for the site redesign. Its modular structure makes it easy to manage content and adapt the site to the organization's evolving needs.

### Zoho CRM

The core of the ecosystem, centralizing all member data—memberships, certifications, and interactions—for a complete and consistent view of each relationship.

### Zoho Form

Facilitates data collection at every process step (registrations, audits, and surveys) and automatically feeds data into the CRM, reducing manual entry.

### Zoho Campaign

Connected to Craft CMS and Zoho CRM, it simplifies communication management and automates marketing campaigns with synchronized audience lists.

### Zoho Analytics

A decision-making dashboard merging data from across all tools, giving the ACQ a global, real-time view of its activities.

### QuickBooks

Automates invoicing and financial management processes, connected to the CRM and other platforms to reduce errors and improve data consistency.

### Certification PWA

A progressive web app (PWA) accessible online and offline that streamlines on-site camp inspections, automatically syncs data, and provides real-time compliance tracking.

### Zoho Flow

The backbone of the ACQ's digital ecosystem: connects all tools, sequences process cycles, and automates the orchestration chain to ensure operational continuity.
