Case Study: Georgia Municipal Association streamlines complex budgeting with XLerant BudgetPak

Georgia Municipal Association streamlines budgeting with XLerant, eliminating $25,000 spreadsheet errors

The Georgia Municipal Association (GMA) faced significant challenges with its complex, error-prone budgeting process built on interconnected Excel spreadsheets. The manual system led to pervasive data errors, time-consuming consolidation, and user frustration. Seeking a solution, GMA's financial analyst Jon Ter Louw turned to XLerant and its BudgetPak platform, prioritizing functionality, user experience, and a web-based system.

Implemented without internal IT support, XLerant’s BudgetPak automated roll-ups and data consolidation, eliminating the costly errors and inefficiencies of the old process. The solution enabled GMA to create a more strategic and reliable budget, directly supporting the organization's long-term viability and mission. The customer reported outstanding satisfaction across ease of use, support, and overall value.
