Rates Modelling with Infor EPM
Precision Revenue Modelling for Local Government
AcQuum Consulting, in partnership with Infor Pathway, delivers a Rates Modelling Tool that empowers local councils to easily create and compare different property rates revenue models.
Our solution stands out for enabling highly accurate revenue forecasting and modelling based on varying scenarios to identify the best rate levies.
Utilising Info OS and out of the box integration with Pathway, the solution offers maximum flexibility to include data from Infor Pathway and other sources that you wish to compare and include in reports.
Using our Rates Modelling product, Councils gain the confidence to model sustainable revenue while maintaining community trust through transparent and auditable processes.
AcQuum's Purpose-Built Rates Modelling Solution
Our specialised Rates Modelling Tool, built on Infor EPM and Infor OS, combines Infor Pathway valuation and rates data with growth projections to provide councils with accurate revenue forecasts.
Core Features:
Comprehensive Revenue Modelling: Project rates revenue using Pathway assessment valuations and growth scenarios.
Scenario-Based Analysis: Easily change and compare the included rate types, rate in the dollar (RITD), minimum rates and caps between scenarios.
Differential Rate Calculations: Complete differential rating category comparisons by updating the weighting or directly updating the rate-in-the-dollar.
Detailed Revenue Planning: Spend-visibility to show target revenue for servicing the municipality. This is also sometimes a % increase from the prior year.
Audit Trail Capability: Record commentary at each step for full auditability.
Interactive Dashboards: Enable easy scenario reporting and comparisons.
Infor Pathway Integration: Integrated data from Pathway to view assessment or property details in the models.
Flexible Data Integration: Consolidate data from multiple systems within Infor EPM using the Infor OS Data Fabric. With configuration, data from other sources can also be included. Whether financial, operational, or external - this ensures a single source of truth for accurate, real-time decision making.
With this purpose-built solution, Council's rating team gains an advanced platform to reliably evaluate rating strategies to achieve the targeted revenue for servicing the municipality—while supporting fairness, transparency, and long-term community trust.
Our Rates Modelling Tool delivers financial certainty and operational efficiency, setting your council apart in sustainable financial planning and outcomes.
Rates Modelling Production Introduction using the Infor Pathway and EPM solution.
The Power of Infor EPM/OS Platform
Our Rates Modelling solution uses the powerful platform capabilities of Infor EPM.
Infor EPM is a leading tool for managing and analysing council finances. Its strong reputation gives councils the confidence (named a leading EPM solution by Nucleus Research in 2024 and 2025) that their revenue planning is built on reliable technology.
-
Integrated with Infor Stack: Infor EPM easily connects with other Infor programs, such as Infor Pathway, helping councils use their current tools more effectively and improve planning.
All-in-One FP&A and Infor EPM: Offers tools for planning, budgeting, forecasting, and tracking performance in one solution.
Flexible, Modern Deployment: Designed for planning across the organisation, with cloud and on-site options to fit council needs.
-
A major benefit of our solution is that it works hand-in-glove with Infor OS, giving councils access to all their important data in one place.
This means councils can bring together valuation and rates data, and other data like assets, financials, and population information.
Having all this data together removes information silos, cuts down on manual work and removes excel as a modelling tool, keeping data accurate and consistent.
This makes Infor EPM an important part of a broader council data strategy.
-
Our Rates Modelling solution is ideally suited for councils that:
Require deep local government scenario and rates modelling capabilities
Need comprehensive Rating Consolidation capabilities
Want to maintain solution ownership without ongoing paid consulting dependencies
