I'm cc'ing the French translation coordinator for CAT. The next version
of CAT (and earliest opportunity to pick up the changes) will not be
before another six months probably.

This is indeed "impossible". Changing sentences dynamically depending on
grammar rules for a variable content is beyond the scope of a simple
technical translation.

If there is a way to construct the sentence so that it's grammatically
correct regardless of the organisation name then that would of course
fix the issue.

For example, I could imagine:

de *l'organisation* $FOO

then irrespective of $FOO, the sentence would be correct?

That's perfectly allowed.
