Cloud Based Budget Software Replacement

The City of Lakeland is seeking a hosted, cloud-based budgeting software solution designed specifically for government budgeting. The selected solution must streamline and modernize the entire budget lifecycle, eliminate reliance on spreadsheets and disconnected tools, support collaborative, real-time budgeting, and enable multi-year forecasting and scenario planning. The solution should also improve transparency, reporting, and public engagement, reduce IT infrastructure, maintenance, and security burdens, and provide a hosted (SaaS) budgeting solution with implementation services, including data migration and training. • The City's current budgeting process is fragmented, with multiple disparate systems and manual processes. • The City is looking for a comprehensive solution that can consolidate operating, personnel, and capital budgeting into a single, integrated platform. • The solution should provide real-time data updates, budget vs. actual analysis, and support for union negotiations, grades, classes, and steps. • The solution should also provide multi-year forecasting, scenario planning, and strategic planning alignment. • The City is looking for a solution that can integrate with its Oracle ERP environment and provide interactive dashboards and reports.
