Revenue leaks happen. Those lost dollars add up quickly, impacting priorities such as infrastructure investments, local amenities, and long-term stability. But through our comprehensive approach to revenue reviews, local governments can identify, claim, and secure every penny due.
Why we’re different

Taxpayers have grown accustomed to banking online and filing federal taxes online. Your local government needs to offer digital solutions, as well. Localgov is an online tax and fee administration platform that provides a secure, convenient way for taxpayers to get in compliance. Plus, local governments take the paper out of the process—and get a more consistent flow of remittances.
Empower your decision-makers with Azavar's data-rich five-year forecasts and avoid the pitfalls that come when you miss your revenue targets. Work with us to develop projections that help you better understand your revenue fluctuations and really empower department decision-makers.
Through regression analysis and statistical software, we identify and analyze variables that might affect consumer and business spending and best reflect the economic realities of a local government.
The result is a budget that spells out future trends in revenue and expenditures so civic leaders can make informed choices for their constituents.
Often, the speed of business and market developments outpaces local government’s ability to keep up. We help municipalities review, implement, and refine legislation that helps communities keep up with market conditions.
Right now, local governments are trying to figure out how best to spend FEMA, CARES, and ARP funds. But with fewer staff and more demands than ever, municipalities need help stewarding these funds appropriately.
