Georgia · Public-sector ERP

Government ERP consultant in Georgia.

Senior, vendor-neutral ERP consultants for Georgia counties, cities, school districts, and authorities — from a stalled go-live to a clean month-end close, a defensible platform selection, or steady managed support.

Senior public-sector ERP operators — trusted by cities, counties, school districts, and special districts across the country.

The Georgia landscape

159 counties — second only to Texas.

Georgia has more counties than almost any state, each reporting to the state and running SPLOST programs. That's exactly the environment senior, vendor-neutral ERP leadership is built for.

Why Georgia is different

Georgia doesn't run ERP like anywhere else.

A platform that works elsewhere still has to satisfy Georgia's rules — state audit and the Report of Local Government Finances, SPLOST project reporting, and TRS and GMEBS payroll. We build for them from day one because we've closed the books under them.

SPLOST has to be tracked project by project

Georgia's special local option sales taxes fund specific projects and require public reporting on collections and spending. An ERP that can't isolate SPLOST by project turns the annual report into manual work.

State reporting has its own format

Georgia local governments file with the Department of Audits and the Report of Local Government Finances. If the fund structure doesn't map, filing becomes a yearly reconstruction.

TRS, ERS, and GMEBS shape payroll

Georgia payroll runs on the Teachers and Employees retirement systems and, for many cities, the GMEBS plan through GMA — each with its own reporting. Configured wrong, payroll and pension break at the first cycle.

Millage and the digest set the budget

Georgia ties your millage to the county tax digest and rollback rate notices. An ERP that can't model them puts rate adoption on a fragile workbook.

What we do for Georgia governments

The full ERP journey, led by people who've done the work.

Whether you're choosing a platform, leading a full ERP implementation, rescuing one that's slipping, or keeping a live system healthy with managed services and support, the same senior operators lead the engagement end to end — vendor-neutral, embedded with your team, and accountable to Georgia's reporting.

01

ERP selection & RFP advisory

Vendor-neutral selection that turns how your Georgia jurisdiction actually runs into a defensible platform choice — with an RFP that survives procurement review and a TCO your board can stand behind.

  • Requirements built around state reporting
  • RFPs aligned to state procurement law
  • 7–10 year total cost of ownership modeling
02

Implementation leadership

Senior program leadership for new finance, HCM, utility billing, and EAM deployments — on-time go-lives with the state's reporting configured from the start, not retrofitted after audit findings.

  • Chart of accounts mapped to state filings
  • Payroll built for the state retirement system
  • Engineered go-lives, scope held
03

Recovery & stabilization

The call Georgia finance directors make when an implementation is slipping, close won't reconcile, or a new firm just left the project half-built. We stabilize the system and finish the work.

  • Stalled go-lives put back on a timeline
  • Reconciliation and close-cycle repair
  • Reporting back in compliance
04

Managed services & support

Ongoing, senior-led support that keeps a live ERP healthy through fiscal year-end and staff turnover — without the dependency model that keeps you paying for problems you didn't create.

  • Month-end and year-end close support
  • Enhancement, patching, and upgrade paths
  • Knowledge transfer, so you're never trapped
Built for Georgia reporting

The compliance details a national vendor misses.

These are the requirements that decide whether your Georgia ERP is a clean system of record or a source of annual pain. We design for each one before go-live — not in a corrective action plan afterward.

  1. 01

    State audit & RLGF reporting

    Fund and account structure mapped so state audit requirements and the Report of Local Government Finances come out of the system.

  2. 02

    SPLOST & project tracking

    Special local option sales tax collections and expenditures isolated by project so the required public reporting is defensible.

  3. 03

    TRS / ERS / GMEBS reporting

    Contributions and reporting to the state retirement systems and GMEBS configured in HCM so payroll and pension reconcile every cycle.

  4. 04

    Millage, digest & rollback rate

    Millage calculations against the tax digest and rollback-rate notices supported in the budget module so rate adoption holds up.

  5. 05

    Procurement & competitive bidding

    Local government purchasing and bidding thresholds kept compliant through selection and contract.

  6. 06

    Utility billing & authorities

    Water, sewer, gas, and authority billing configured so exceptions and rebills stay the exception.

FAQ

Government ERP in Georgia, answered.

+Do you work with Georgia governments even though your case studies are in other states?
Yes. Our published case studies are in California and Texas, but public-sector ERP is a national discipline and the operating model is identical — senior operators, vendor-neutral, embedded with your team. What changes in Georgia is the reporting layer: state audit and the RLGF, SPLOST, and TRS and GMEBS payroll, and that's exactly what we build for.
+Which ERP platforms do you support for Georgia agencies?
We're hands-on with every major public-sector ERP platform and strictly vendor-neutral — no reseller, referral, or partnership with any vendor. We tell you which platform genuinely fits your jurisdiction's size, reporting, and procurement path.
+Can you make our ERP track SPLOST and produce state reporting?
Yes — it's one of the first things we design for. We map your fund structure so state audit reporting and the RLGF come out of the system, and we isolate SPLOST by project so the required public reporting is defensible.
+Does your work stay within Georgia procurement rules?
Yes. We scope selections and RFPs to hold up under Georgia local government purchasing law. We're not the vendor, so our advice on the buy is genuinely independent.
+We're mid-implementation and it's slipping. Can you step in?
That's one of the most common ways Georgia finance directors first call us. We join a live project, stabilize the go-live, repair close and reconciliation, and get reporting back in compliance — whether the original firm is still on the project or already gone.
