Gartner defines cloud ERP services for local government as services provided by the vendor or third-party systems integrators (SI) to assess needs, implement solutions and evolve platforms that are transforming their back-office systems via the implementation of cloud-based ERP solutions. These integrated products include financial management system (FMS) functionality, order to cash (O2C), procure to pay (P2P), grant fund accounting, utility billing, human capital management (HCM), supply chain management (SCM) and other administrative ERP functionality. Broadly speaking, local government ERP solutions enable a variety of enterprisewide business processes, primarily those associated with core systems that enable the government enterprise to conduct business and deliver services.
