Best way to raise pH without alkalis?

I have a process that requires pH~14-14.5 to work. I’ve been achieving this with concentrated NaOH solutions, but the Na cations are later causing side reactions which are detrimental. Is there any organic base/non-alkali base that has the solubility in water and pKa to reach these pH values?
