Union County hires external financial consultant to review FY2025 accounting
Summary
Union County contracted JAT Consulting Services to review FY2025 accounting practices and internal controls at hourly rates of $125–$225. The Finance Director requested an independent review after recent accounting and budget-procedure changes.
Commissioner Collins accepted an agreement with JAT Consulting Services, Inc. to perform Financial Management Consulting Services for Union County. The engagement, effective June 4, 2026, will review FY2025 accounting procedures, internal controls, and financial transactions; the consultant’s hourly rate is stated as $125 to $225 per hour.
The minutes say the Finance Director requested an independent review because staff bandwidth has been limited while implementing changed budget procedures and integrating the Recreation Department into the general fund. The consultant will evaluate existing processes and transactions to promote accuracy, efficiency and compliance with applicable laws and Governmental Accounting Standards.
