Proposal for City of Santa Ana <br />14 <br />expertise necessary to ensure that charts of accounts and all related modules are implemented appropriately. Cherry <br />Bekaert has decades of experience both as the project manager on the implementation of these systems as well as <br />providing remediation work when an implementation does not go as expected. <br />Internal Control and Compliance Evaluation and Transformation <br />Lending or granting federal and state funds and ensuring compliance from subrecipients involves significant, new and <br />changing compliance complexities that many public sector organizations may be unfamiliar with. We assist <br />governments with evaluation of their internal control and compliance structure or those of their related entities as <br />subrecipients. Our support extends beyond compliance and seeks to help funding recipients identify efficiencies or <br />implement templates and checklists to enhance their processes going forward. <br />Tailored Training and CPE <br />The field of governmental accounting and fiscal management is dynamic for both the City and its external consultants. <br />Pronouncements from the following bodies all have significant impact on this sector: <br /> Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB) (altering internal accounting and external reporting) <br /> AICPA (modifying audit standards and procedures) <br /> OMB (creating new compliance demands associated with the expenditure of federal funds) <br />With staffing shortages and average employee tenures decreasing, it is imperative that governmental accounting and <br />finance personnel receive adequate training to perform their roles and responsibilities. We maintain a robust library of <br />trainings on a variety of governmental accounting and financial reporting topics and can deliver/facilitate targeted <br />training to your teams. All proposed service team members have more than 40 hours of relevant continuing education <br />during each of the last two years, including the continuing education required by Government Auditing Standards. <br />Experience <br />A list of current and recent clients includes: <br /> Alaska Railroad <br /> Alliance Health* <br /> Augusta Richmond County, Georgia <br /> Broward Metropolitan Planning Organization, Florida <br /> Cabarrus County, North Carolina <br /> Central Florida Tourism Oversight District <br /> Central New Mex <br /> Chesapeake Public Schools, Virginia <br /> Chicago Transit Authority, Illinois <br /> Cincinnati Metropolitan Housing Authority, Ohio <br /> City of Asheville, North Carolina* <br /> City of Chesapeake, Virginia* <br /> City of Deming, New Mexico <br /> City of Fayetteville, North Carolina <br /> City of Fort Myers, Florida* <br /> City of Kerrville, Texas <br /> City of Hallandale Beach, Florida <br /> City of Livonia, Michigan* <br /> City of Richardson, Texas <br /> City of Roanoke Rapids, North Carolina <br /> City of Suffolk, Virginia <br /> Florida Agricultural & Mechanical University <br /> Fayetteville State University, North Carolina <br /> Forsyth County, North Carolina* <br /> Greater Raleigh Visitors and Convention Bureau <br /> Georgia Regents Real Estate Corporation <br /> Hampton City Schools, Virginia* <br /> Hampton Roads Sanitation District, Virginia <br /> Louisville Metropolitan Housing Authority, Kentucky <br /> Mecklenburg County Sheriff’s Office, North Carolina <br /> North Carolina Central University <br /> North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality <br /> North Carolina Department of Information <br />Technology <br /> North Carolina Department of Cultural and Natural <br />Resources <br /> North Carolina Department of Public Instruction <br /> Newport News Public Schools, Virginia <br /> Oneida Nation <br /> Orange County Public Schools, Florida <br /> Richmond Metropolitan Transportation Authority <br /> Roosevelt County, New Mexico   <br />  <br />City Council 12 – 68 5/20/2025
