To On-premise

Fast forward to March 2010 where the AAASWA is using MIP as its fund accounting solution. They serve 12 counties in Southwestern Arkansas, overseeing 24 senior centers and serving about 5,000 individuals monthly.

From providing in-home meals to seniors or to providing them in a community setting, to hosting social events, to in home personal care, case management, legal services and providing transportation to and from senior centers, the AAASWA exists to help senior citizens retain their independence and to assist them with the problems
that arise.

When it comes to AAASWA’s finances, MIP helps to manage the variety of funds that are managed and administered, ensuring essential operations like payroll are done correctly and on time. The end result? Accurate reports that demonstrate their agency’s impact to their board and external stakeholders.

“We have Gold Support, so we have a dedicated
support person,” Lewis said. “Whenever something
comes up, we’ll say, ‘Well, we have to call [our
support person].’”

They now couldn’t picture managing their finances
without anything else. AAASWA manages several
funds and sends regular reports to the Arkansas Department of Human Services in Little Rock, with
MIP managing their funds and creating those reports is effortless.

“I love being able to go in and pull a report,”
Lewis said.

“If we need to see how much we’ve spent with these different funds, I’ve set them all up as programs, and because each fund is different, we have to report them [differently.] I like being able to customize the reports. If I just need to see how much we’ve spent in Title III C1 for this amount of time, I like being able to pull that up without needing several different reports.”
