Salary and Position Planning

Actual Costs vs. Budgeted Costs

  • Attach/link documents to costing centers
  • Assign projects to one or several wards/regions
  • Integrate with any financial package
  • Create council ready reports displaying approved past budgets vs. actual cost comparisons

Integration & Technology

Municipalities asked for a public sector budgeting solution with little or no installation that was easy to use. With this in mind, our TeamBudget Operating government budgeting solution was built on the latest Microsoft web based technology.

A web-based system allows for:

  • No installation on user desktops
  • Easy integration into existing business systems
  • Availability across the enterprise and WAN using intranet
  • Scalability to accommodate growth of your organization
  • Simple log in and use from any system without installation
  • Promotion or demotion of a project to the next stage with comments

Reporting

With our TeamBudget Operating public sector budgeting solution you can:

  • Print reports that go directly into your budget book
  • Access many built-in reports
  • Customize existing reports
  • Create Ad Hoc Reports using the integrated Report Builder Tool

Integration with Financial Systems

Integration means you can:

  • Load your budget to your financial package once approved
  • Import actual and/or encumbered costs
  • Compare actual vs. budgeted costs

Security & Licensing

Security is a necessity, not an option. With TeamBudget Operating you can be sure that all information is secure.

With our TeamBudget Operating government budgeting solution you have the ability to:

  • Restrict access based on multiple criteria such as: costing center, user, department or budget stage
  • Allow administrators to quickly add a user to an existing role
  • Prevent users from access to the budget after it has reached a certain stage
