Administrative processes within local authorities and government institutions are under pressure. Complex legislation, staff shortages and rising expectations from residents call for smart solutions. With AFAS ERP software, you can digitise processes, increase compliance and reduce your workload.
In this article, you can read how AFAS helps local authorities with efficiency, security and transparency — and how Proces Bouwers supports you in this through AFAS Mentorship.
What is AFAS for local authorities?
AFAS offers ERP software for the public sector, focused on:
- HRM & Payroll
- Financial management (including BBV & Iv3)
- Fixed assets and liabilities administration
- Working digitally according to Common Ground
