MARTA turns internal audit into a trusted advisor
Until a few years ago, the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority's auditing was still a world of paper, pencils, office applications and file rooms. With Diligent Audit, the audit department has streamlined its operations while boosting productivity through automation to get a better grip on the risks facing its operations.
Fountain-Fort Carson School District 8 streamlines meeting packet prep with Diligent Community
Modern Governance 100 honoree Shiona Nash is the Executive Assistant to the Superintendent and Board of Education for Fountain-Fort Carson School District 8, which serves over 9,000 students. Creating board packets was a major source of stress and frustration for Nash. The manual process involved creating, printing and collating hundreds of pages of materials. Often, Nash would have to hand-deliver packets to each board member before the meeting and make last-minute edits that usually required full packet reprints. “I always told my coworkers that if there were one reason I would quit it would probably be because of the board packets,” Nash said. “Through Diligent, we’ve been able to increase our transparency with our community,” Nash said. “Our mission is to develop a generation of world-class learners, and Diligent helps us to achieve that mission — helping our board members to do their jobs to their fullest ability.”
