Success Story: Calcasieu Parish School Board, LA
A strong foundation makes for a steady superstructure. For Calcasieu Parish School Board (CPSB), the 5th largest school district in the state of Louisiana, building strong foundations for the future is at the heart of its mission. As the district’s 4,000+ employees work hard to carry out that mission, the administrative as working tirelessly to make sure the payment and tax collection process went smoothly. With outdated manual processes, the team spent hours each week seeking out information from schools, assigning codes, and tracking payments for accurate reporting.
For the internal auditing team, this meant resolving conflicts on W9 forms, regathering information from officials, and manually verifying amounts paid for every check to every official. With the goal of turning this three-week process into a simple automated process, Wayne Foster and his team began using ArbiterPay.
Improvements through Technology is very important to me and my staff. Over the last 7 years, we have moved to web-based systems for our school accounting and extended day programs. ArbiterPay is the latest in a line of technological advances for our District that has enhanced efficiency while providing a desired product to our officials and bookkeepers.
The ArbiterPay platform saved Wayne and his team time and energy by improving the accuracy of personal information and the timeliness of reporting. By handing the task of creating and managing 1099s to Arbiter, CPSB’s office efficiency increased at both the district and school levels.
By focusing on their foundation at the administration level, Calcasieu Parish School Board went the extra mile to ensure that all their schools became well-versed in how to easily make payments using ArbiterPay.
