5 Ways to Use GovMax for More Efficient Budgeting
Deadlines and budgeting in a crunch is very common for government budgeting teams, and the bigger your agency, the more your leadership’s input adds to this complexity and the more department-level budget input you have to manage. Especially during the crunch of budgeting season, you can’t afford to delay your budgeting with the backlog of decisions you have to navigate.
The last thing you need to be dealing with is spreadsheet budgeting or complicated ERP systems. Spreadsheets are bulky, less functional, and can be a headache when it comes to handling multi-scenario budgets, not to mention projections for capital projects or running forecasts. Similarly, since ERP systems are not just for budgeting, it can get complicated with having to use it since it wasn’t designed just for the Budget Manager in mind.
On the other hand, GovMax is a cloud-based budgeting tool specifically built just for government budgeting. GovMax customers use it to plan their budgets every step of the way and get more efficiency out of the budget process.
