Case Study: Minneapolis strengthens future-ready budgeting with OpenGov

Minneapolis manages a $1.57 billion budget with OpenGov

The city of Minneapolis needed to improve its strategic budgeting and long-term planning for its $1.57 billion budget, specifically seeking accurate revenue forecasting and responsible management of federal stimulus funds. To address this, Minneapolis partnered with OpenGov and implemented its Budgeting & Planning suite.

Using OpenGov's solution, the city gained the ability to create detailed five-year revenue and cost projections, enabling smarter budget decisions across a longer window. This provided a more accurate forecast and a holistic view of the city's financial story. The implementation also supported Minneapolis’s strategic goals, including racial equity analysis of programs and investments. With OpenGov, the city now follows its financial policies, maintains necessary reserves, and manages its budget in a way that prepares it for the future.
