Managing a city's operations efficiently is a process that demands organization and well-coordinated efforts. In this rapidly evolving world, the rigors of urban management are ever-increasing, necessitating tools and processes that simplify the workload of running and maintaining a city's infrastructure, while ensuring transparency and accountability to citizens. Enter gWorks – a robust solution designed to streamline city management tasks across various hubs including Fund Accounting Management, Accounts Payable, Bank Reconciliation, General Ledger, Payroll, and Utility Billing.

Navigating the Process Book: A Blueprint for Success

The Process Book serves as a roadmap to guide your city's personnel through the essential tasks and practices that support effective city management. By following these recommendations, you not only simplify your work processes but also lay the groundwork for a reliable audit trail. Whether your city is big or small, each module's best practices ensure a consistent approach that can be tailored to accommodate your city's unique policies and schedules.

Mastering Module-Specific Frequencies

The Process Book categorizes tasks based on their frequency to establish a structured approach to task completion. This categorization aids in balancing daily operational demands with the need for strategic planning. Let's explore the task frequency categories outlined in the Process Book:

  1. Daily Tasks: These tasks should be performed on a daily basis as needed to maintain fluid operations, such as invoice processing. These actions are integral to the day-to-day functioning of your city and ensure that any immediate issues are addressed promptly.
  2. Weekly Tasks: To maintain steady progress and prevent undue accumulation of work, weekly tasks should be completed at least once every week. This category includes activities that require regular upkeep and attention, like electronic payments entries.
  3. Semi-Monthly or Monthly Tasks: Depending on your city's policies, certain tasks should be performed 2-3 times a month. These tasks are aimed at addressing the specific needs of your city during regular intervals, depending upon how often your city, town or village council meets and how often you do an Accounts Payable run.
  4. Quarterly Tasks: Performed once every quarter, these tasks allow your city to delve into deeper analyses and assessments. They contribute to a comprehensive understanding of your city's financial and operational health.
  5. Annual Tasks: The annual tasks are the cornerstone of long-term planning and compliance, for example the Year End Rollover or printing and mailing 1099s. By completing these tasks annually, your city lays a solid foundation for future growth and development.

Creating Your Master Calendar: A Strategic Approach

A central feature of the Process Book is the "Creating a Calendar" section within each module. This section presents a series of tasks that gWorks recommends adding to your master calendar. By aggregating these tasks, you gain a holistic view of your city's responsibilities and can proactively manage busy periods.

To optimize this approach, gWorks suggests creating a master calendar that consolidates all module-specific tasks. This bird's-eye view facilitates the identification of potential bottlenecks or heavy workloads, allowing you to allocate resources and manpower efficiently. As a result, you can strategically plan your work and ensure that all crucial tasks are accomplished without compromising the quality of your city's services.
