Case Study: Logan County achieves real-time financial visibility and faster reporting with Civica Authority

Authority Finance drives improved visibility and better reporting for Logan County Auditor’s Office

Logan County, Ohio — led by newly elected Auditor Jack Reser — inherited an outdated, largely paper-based accounting environment that relied on MS‑DOS systems and manual processes across more than 50 agencies. Seeking better visibility into balance sheets, faster reporting and reduced operating costs, the county engaged Civica and implemented its Authority suite (notably Authority Finance) to modernize fiscal operations.

Civica deployed Authority Finance to centralize fund tracking and introduce digital requisition routing across 53 agencies, delivering near‑paperless workflows and real‑time month‑to‑date, year‑to‑date revenue and expense reporting. The result, per Reser: single‑click reports that take about five minutes instead of hours, improved productivity and transparency, lower operating costs, and faster, day‑to‑day financial oversight thanks to Civica’s solution.
