Finance / Procurement System ERP

Central Square’s (formerly SunGard) ERP System called OneSolution was implemented in Anoka County on January 1, 2014. The selection of the ERP software vendor and implementation was based on the premise Anoka County operated like Dakota County and there was never a thorough review of exiting processes or gap analysis. There have been challenges working with OneSolution that include many alternative processes or workarounds. In addition, Central Square has changed hands three times since implementation, which has dramatically affected customer service, product development and vision.


The new system will address the deficits the current system has in meeting Standard Finance and Accounting Practices


Procurement today is a manual process. The new system will assist in aligning best practices.
