Presented By:

Groundswell

Description:

Efficient budget reconciliation is essential for you to ensure compliance, make the most of available funding, and stay aligned with mission priorities. In this session, you’ll get a practical roadmap for modernizing your reconciliation processes using automation, integrated workflows, and AI/ML-driven insights.

You’ll take a close look at common challenges in traditional budget execution—like redundant data entry, disconnected systems, and time-consuming manual checks. You’ll learn how to overcome these issues by applying modern techniques, such as predictive analytics and AI/ML tools, to reduce errors and improve the accuracy of your financial execution data.

You’ll also explore how automation and streamlined processes can increase transparency and accountability in your organization. For example, you’ll see how predictive tools can help you spot spending anomalies, optimize resource allocation, and anticipate potential shortfalls or over-obligations—so you can take proactive steps and drive better financial outcomes.
