Case Study: Community Action Agency of Butte County, Inc. achieves compliant, adaptable fund accounting across diverse grants with MIP Fund Accounting

CAABCI Serves the Underserved with Help from MIP Fund Accounting

Community Action Agency of Butte County, Inc. (CAABCI) operates four major programs on a $7.5 million budget funded by nearly 30 different sources, creating highly complex accounting and compliance requirements that made small-business tools like QuickBooks inadequate. To manage diverse grant rules and prevent costly mistakes, CAABCI turned to MIP Fund Accounting for a true fund accounting system with built-in controls.

CAABCI implemented MIP Fund Accounting, which provided strict accounting controls, flexible coding to meet each funder’s unique definitions, and enhanced fraud detection developed in collaboration with the agency. As a result, MIP Fund Accounting enabled accurate tracking of allocations down to granular line items, improved compliance across multiple funding streams, and reliably supports CAABCI’s $7.5M budget and program reporting needs.
