Rebuilding Financial Health:  Priority Based Budgeting

Government leaders are being forced to decide between continuity in mission critical service delivery, taking on new initiatives, capital maintenance and critical projects, while often forgoing long-term investments. Our team can aid you to prioritize how scarce taxpayer monies and one-time grant funds can be maximized.  We help government leaders: 

• Strategic Planning - Align Citizen Expectations and Priorities.  We assist governments in making the often-difficult decision on where to allocated limited resources. We align vision and priorities to achieve operational excellence. We ensure stakeholder voices are heard to reflect the needs and priorities of the community.  We deploy results-focused change management plans centered on communication and training stakeholders.
• Federal Fund Management.  A&M can help maximize the impact of each COVID response dollar by providing a comprehensive and ongoing assessment of available funding streams outlined in the American Recovery Plan and all previous legislation. We prioritize the use of resources based on use-flexibility, deadlines, and reimbursement rates. 
• Executive Advisory and Interim Leadership.  Critical initiatives require experienced oversight—our seasoned professionals, many of whom are former CFOs and government budget leaders, can provide expert guidance and temporary leadership to drive results when you need it most.
• Fiscal Sustainability and Accountability Plans.  Our organizational risk assessments address operational and internal control issues, creating improved and more accountable organizational structures.

• Priority Based Budgeting.  We deploy a bottom bottom-up budget process, that is built on the foundation of mission-driven priorities. We develop accountability toolkits to ensure dollars are being spent in accordance with plans and aligned to defined priorities. We develop multi-year revenue forecasts and deficit elimination plans.
• Return on Investment Analysis.  We determine the long-term economic and financial impacts of needed capital and economic reinvestment to bolster state and local economies. We improve financial positions by examining revenue opportunities, operating cost efficiencies and capital asset monetization.
