Case Study: Indianapolis Public Schools achieves greater budgeting autonomy and faster financial access with Allovue Balance Manage

How Indianapolis Public Schools prepared 150 administrators for student-based budgeting

Indianapolis Public Schools faced significant challenges in shifting to a decentralized, student-based budgeting model. Their principals lacked financial management training and could not independently access the district's complex and user-unfriendly financial data system. To overcome these impediments, they partnered with Allovue and implemented its Balance Manage platform.

Allovue’s solution provided principals with immediate, simplified access to their financial information, saving significant time and enabling smoother collaboration between schools and the Central Office. The vendor administered a Savvy Survey, conducted in-person training, and provided ongoing support, which empowered administrators and prepared them for greater budgetary autonomy.
