GOVERNMENT

UHY possesses a highly experienced group of professionals in the area of government accounting and related advisory services. Our government group is highly respected and skilled in assisting clients in solving complex problems facing government units in today’s rapidly changing environment.

How State and Local Governments Can Optimize Their ARPA Funds

In March 2021, Congress passed the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), which provides $350 billion for eligible state, local, territorial, and Tribal governments to respond to the COVID-19 emergency and bring back jobs. This funding offers communities an unprecedented opportunity to impact the lives of its citizens through prudent spending. UHY stands ready to help you with setting your ARPA strategy, managing and monitoring your funds, and reporting your spending to the appropriate authorities.

OVERVIEW AND EXPERIENCE

UHY stands ready to help you with setting your ARPA strategy, managing and monitoring your funds, and reporting your spending to the appropriate authorities.

When the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) came into effect in March 2021, UHY recognized the need for governments to take a rigorous approach so we developed an effective method to assist governments with ARPA funds. The approach covers three main areas:  Strategy, Continuous Monitoring, and Transparency.

We believe governments can significantly benefit from grouping all ARPA activities into these three main areas. In serving our existing ARPA clients, we have utilized this consistent approach to provide guidance, strategic plan advice, oversight, and compliance, monitoring, training, and reporting. Through this approach we are able to provide governments with guidance on the use of ARPA funds that best suit the needs of its constituents.

In this recent webinar, Jack Reagan discusses this approach and how governments should strategize, monitor and report ARPA funds. The webinar covers:

  • Using ARPA funds strategically to fit with the goals of your locality
  • Complying with the necessary guidance
  • Identifying effective tools and technologies for monitoring how ARPA funds are used
  • Understanding the reporting process
