Case Study: City of Ivins saves time and funds new positions with OpenGov Budget Builder

City of Ivins cuts finance director reporting time by 50% with OpenGov

The City of Ivins, a small municipality in Utah, faced challenges with an inefficient and siloed budget process centered on static spreadsheets. This method limited collaboration with department heads and consumed excessive time for the Finance Director. Ivins turned to OpenGov and implemented its OpenGov Budget Builder solution to modernize planning and improve fiscal management.

Using OpenGov Budget Builder streamlined the budget process by enabling real-time, cloud-based collaboration. Department heads could directly input and adjust their numbers, which significantly reduced duplicated efforts. The solution helped the City of Ivins cut the Finance Director's budget-related time by 50% and, through detailed financial analysis, identify available resources to fund two new full-time positions for the first time since the Great Recession.
