City of Flowery Branch, GA - Customer Case Study

Flowery Branch, GA, a rapidly growing city in northeast Georgia, was managing its annual budgeting and strategic planning with disjointed spreadsheets and manual tools. The finance team needed a more efficient way to coordinate departmental input, create its budget book, and support long-term planning without hiring additional staff. ClearGov provided the city with Operational Budgeting, Capital Budgeting, Digital Budget Book, Transparency, and access to its Strategic Planning beta.

With ClearGov, Flowery Branch streamlined budgeting and planning, improved collaboration and budget visibility across departments, and made its first-year digital budget book creation much easier. ClearGov’s built-in GFOA checklist helped the city earn its budget award, while automation and streamlined workflows saved staff time and removed the need to expand headcount. ClearGov also helped the city better track capital projects and communicate progress to stakeholders and residents.
