The Challenge:

Before implementing gWorks, Belle Fourche faced several challenges due to their outdated and siloed systems. The municipality relied on manual data entry and disjointed software applications, which led to inefficiencies, errors, and wasted time. The lack of integration between departments and processes resulted in redundant tasks and difficulty in accessing accurate and up-to-date information.

The lack of integration and transparency hindered efficient communication and collaboration among departments. This siloed approach prevented the easy sharing of information, resulting in slower decision-making processes. Overall, Belle Fourche needed a solution that could integrate their disparate systems, streamline processes, and enhance efficiency to overcome these challenges and improve overall municipal operations.

The gWorks Solution:

gWorks provided Belle Fourche with a fully-integrated software solution that streamlined several municipal processes and eliminated the need for disjointed, siloed systems. The integration of accounting, payroll, utility billing, online payments, citizen engagement, operations, and mapping produced a unified platform that simplified operations, reducing redundancies and errors in data. The advanced capabilities of gWorks' solution automated tasks that were formerly done manually, improving efficiency and producing significant time savings for staff.

We’ve seen a 100% impact from gWorks in our office. in our office. If you make an update in one program, it updates everything else in the system. It’s just one click and everything's updated, backed up and balanced. – Jason LaFayette, Finance Officer
