Government

AHEAD OF THE CURVE

Our government consulting group has 20 years' experience finding answers to challenges common to local governments, alcohol, drug addiction and mental health services board and school districts.

Because we spend most of our time serving these entities, we become familiar with and can adopt new standards more quickly. For example, we have expertise assisting cities and school districts adopt GASB 34, taking mulitiple cities and school districts through the new reporting process.

With our assistance, Sidney, Ohio was one of the first 50 cities in the nation to make the conversion. The process went so well, they continued to be awarded the Certificate of Excellence in Financial Reporting from the Government Finance Officers Association with minimal comments.

PINPOINT SOLUTIONS

Our experience allows us to go deeper than traditional audits and gaap conversions to help government organizations find and change situations that are lowering performance or raising costs.

Our School Performance Audits are popular: for healthy schools seeing a worrisome trend, we compare selected areas of operation to other schools of the same size. While this limited audit not only prevents the bad publicity of negative audit problems, it often generates positive press. We can pinpoint what you are doing differently that is causing the problem and make recommendations for proactive change or reinforce efficiencies.

Another group specialty is tax levy evaluations. We offer an independent evaluation from the perspective of the government entity involved, providing levy proponents with strengths of the entity, as well as answers to the difficult questions they will face in a campaign.

As you look for clear, concise accounting to meet the new post-Enron independence standards, consider CSH. We have the track record, and the focus, to help you succeed like never before.
