Case Study: Local Government Boundary Commission for England improves transparency and cost allocation with Aqilla

How The Local Government Boundary Commission For England Use Aqilla To Improve Transparency

The Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) needed to improve cost allocation and financial transparency amid budget cuts. The Commission also sought to move away from a restrictive outsourced accounting arrangement and to a cloud-based infrastructure, leading them to seek a new financial system. They selected the Aqilla accounting software for its potential to be tailored to their specific needs.

Aqilla was implemented quickly and customized to reflect the LGBCE's complex authorisation matrix and reporting requirements, including the public disclosure of all expenditure over £500. The solution allowed the Commission to successfully bring its finance function in-house, with staff finding the system easy to use. The LGBCE reported a smooth transition with few issues, citing Aqilla's responsive support and the software's continuous evolution based on customer feedback.
