The recent Auditor-general’s report on local government audit outcomes, for the 2020/21 financial year, emphasises how local governments are in dire need of assistance. InzaloEMS is perfectly placed to answer the AG’s call to “strengthen basic financial and performance management disciplines … to prevent mismanagement, transgressions, non-performance, fraud and financial loss.”

InzaloEMS partners with municipalities to implement the latest technologies for changes necessary to improve their financial health. The IT company has assisted many of the municipalities with their unique, proudly South African, end-to-end solution, built to obtain clean audits and improve outcomes. Nowhere is this clearer than in the Great Kei Municipality in the Eastern Cape which wears the badge of honour of ‘Most Improved Audit Outcome”.

The Mnquma Municipality in the Eastern Cape is another case in point. Once again, they have maintained an Unqualified Audit (from a Disclaimer two years ago), which injects confidence in both the workforce and the community. “It is not that hard to achieve a clean audit opinion if people put financial controls in place and monitor them. This is what InzaloEMS made easy for us,” said Mnquma Municipality’s Chief Financial Officer, Mzusekho Matomane.
Gareth Mnisi, CFO of Chief Albert Luthuli Municipality successfully obtained a fifth consecutive Unqualified Audit with a Clean Audit clearly in sight. “InzaloEMS was a key part of our success. Once we had their financial system in place, we were capable of making major improvements with good financial outcomes,” said Mnisis.
“InzaloEMS’ system is so unique that there is no other comparable product with similar features and capabilities,” says Sizwe Moosa, Group Business Development Manager. “We developed our system to meet National Treasury requirements to comply with the prescribed formatting outlined in National Treasury’s Municipal Standard Chart of Accounts (mSCOA). We simplified and incorporated all fifteen National Treasury regulations into the system,” says Gansen Naidoo, Senior Manager, Product Development.

InzaloEMS is also the only company in South Africa with such an integrated system without using third party add-ins to optimise the complete municipal revenue cycle. With InzaloEMS’ system, there is no need for interfacing and batch processing which is the case with many of its competitors. “It is the only system available with one entry where all modules are part of one system and compliant with each other. You log in once and everything talks to each other including real-time reporting at a click of a button. It is modern, dynamic and one-of-a-kind,” Naidoo says proudly.

The product improves audit outcomes and reporting and ensures accurate billing. InzaloEMS’ new Business Intelligence (analytics) tools will soon assist CFO’s and Municipal Managers to make more informed decisions by presenting their data in a more readable and meaningful format. The software facilitates decision-making that is based on real-time information. This new addition to the existing EMS functions is driven by a dedicated and passionate team of experts with several years of experience in servicing the public sector.
Ultimately the InzaloEMS system aims to improve cash collection which has a positive impact on service delivery and inspires economic growth. InzaloEMS is the future of municipal financial systems which supports Clean and Unqualified Audit findings.
This is InzaloEMS’ legacy.
