PursuitBid for association budgets
Manage the board-adopted budget, track performance against it, and plan cash around renewal and event seasons with traceable reports for the board.
Boards adopt a budget and expect regular reporting against it. Associations also have uneven cash. Dues arrive in a renewal season, event revenue arrives before or after the event, and expenses keep their own schedule. Spreadsheets struggle to keep the adopted budget, the current outlook, and the cash timing straight.
PursuitBid keeps the adopted budget fixed while a rolling forecast reflects current expectations, and the thirteen-week cash outlook shows when renewal receipts and event costs land. Variance analysis by account and department explains differences, and published report editions give the board a consistent, traceable pack.
Things to keep in mind
- Dues often count as deferred revenue in your books. Model receipts and revenue separately.
- Events can be planned as departments to see their contribution clearly.
- Statutory reporting and Form 990 stay with your accountant.
