Case Study: Georgia Municipal Association achieves more accurate, strategic budgeting with XLerant BudgetPak

Georgia Municipal Association - Customer Case Study

Georgia Municipal Association (GMA), a non-profit state organization representing 521 municipal governments in Georgia, needed a better way to manage a highly complex, personnel-driven budgeting process. Its Excel-based system was slow, hard for department heads to use, and prone to costly errors and corrupted spreadsheets, creating a major burden for the finance team. XLerant’s BudgetPak was selected to replace the manual process with a web-based budgeting solution.

XLerant implemented BudgetPak without requiring IT support, with the finance and operations teams handling deployment. The platform automated rollups and consolidated budgeting across departments, reducing errors and improving the user experience. As a result, GMA gained a more efficient, strategic budgeting process that better supports long-term organizational planning and mission delivery.
