Performance Reporting & Budgeting - More and more, jurisdictions need to meet local, regional and state-mandated timeframes and quality benchmarks. Recently, several criteria have been developed to measure the quality of Public Sector services. The most progressive jurisdictions are using technology that allows them to monitor key performance indicators to see the impact of new policies and procedures. AMANDA rolls up individual transactions to help senior managers measure overall metrics and truly gauge how they are performing.
AMANDA's performance reporting is suitable for public sector standards such as:
Service Efforts and Accomplishments
Municipal Performance Measurement Program (in Ontario)
GASB Statement 34/SEAGOV (in US)
NQI Public Sector Quality Criteria (in Canada)
Balanced Scorecard
Comprehensive Annual Financial Reporting (CAFR)
Our software's executive monitor feature gives a customizable way to view performance data from internal data, PDF or
HTML reports created in other systems. Users can drill-down on monitor items to view detailed metrics, associated
reports or specific folders to reveal details that need addressing before they impact performance. Each manager can set Key Performance Indicator thresholds, which when exceeded, can trigger a follow-up email, run a report or notify another system.
Property Tax Billing - AMANDA Property Tax is currently used by communities in Ontario and British Columbia. The software gives out-of-the-box support for current municipal property tax legislation in these provinces.
AMANDA's holistic property model makes it ideal for property taxation. AMANDA offers a fast, flexible, property-based tax system that handles all rate calculations, bills generation, payment recording and status lookup. The software's open design can be easily adapted to meet a jurisdiction's taxation requirements without the need for programming, lowering the total cost of ownership. Our property tax software offers Treasury departments the following benefits:
Producing interim, final and supplementary tax bills.
Accounts for parcel changes: consolidations, splits, new/changed structures, obsoletes of old properties, one or multiple classes of use and transfers.
Security protocols that guard against the risk of external or internal fraud.
An architecture that also allows Treasury officials to evolve the system as business practices change or laws are updated.
