ExpenseAnywhere® Gov is purpose-built for state & local government, municipalities, K-12 districts, and universities. Configurable support for state travel regulations, OMB Uniform Guidance, and federal education grant requirements — all in one platform.
ExpenseAnywhere® Gov is available through the AFI Master Agreement, making procurement fast and compliant for eligible public sector organizations — available via Edge Public and the Civic Marketplace, eliminating the need for a standalone procurement process.
A city council, a school board, a state agency, and a university research office don't report to the same authority or follow the same rulebook. ExpenseAnywhere® Gov configures around whichever one governs you.
State-specific per diem and mileage tables, public procurement documentation, and budget controls that prevent overspend before it happens.
Grant-coded expense tracking for Title I and IDEA funding, board-approved authorization workflows, and EDGAR-aligned documentation trails.
OMB Uniform Guidance compliance for federally-funded research travel, sponsor-specific restrictions, and indirect cost rate allocation tracking.
Multi-department workflows, state procurement law compliance, and consolidated reporting across agencies with different budget codes.
Federal departments follow the FTR. But municipalities, K-12, and universities operate under different frameworks — state travel policies, OMB Uniform Guidance, and sponsor-specific grant requirements. ExpenseAnywhere® Gov is designed to handle all of them.
Public Sector — State, Local & EducationMunicipalities, counties, and state agencies operate under state-level travel regulations — not FTR. ExpenseAnywhere® Gov supports configurable state per diem tables, state procurement rules, and OMB 2 CFR Part 200 requirements.
State Travel Regs · OMB 2 CFR 200K-12 districts follow state education travel policies and federal education grant requirements — Title I, IDEA, and EDGAR. ExpenseAnywhere® Gov enforces grant-specific coding and board-approved authorization workflows.
Title I · IDEA · EDGARUniversities with federally-funded research follow OMB Uniform Guidance, the Fly America Act, and sponsor requirements from NSF, NIH, and DOE. ExpenseAnywhere® Gov tracks IDC allocations and generates closeout documentation.
2 CFR Part 200 · Fly America · NSF/NIHFreedom of Information Act requests are quickly satisfied with complete, searchable, and exportable expense records — no manual file pulling required when a request arrives.
FOIA · Records RequestsGeo-code-based use tax compliance for public entities with specific tax treatment requirements under state law — applied automatically to every relevant transaction.
Use Tax · Geo-CodePrompt payment requirements and public sector vendor management rules supported natively across all payment workflows — keeping your organization current with procurement law.

Multi-Entity WorkflowsConnect existing government-issued cards with daily transaction feeds, auto-reconciled and audit-documented — no replacement of your current card program required.
Government CardsGenerate reports designed for public transparency requirements, oversight committees, and internal audit boards — directly from the system, no manual assembly.
Public AccountabilityPublic institutions don't get the luxury of private financial records. A records request, a board question, or a local news inquiry can arrive at any time — and the expectation is a fast, complete answer.
Records aren't buried in scanned PDFs or filing cabinets. Travel and expense data is structured, searchable by date, department, traveler, or funding source.
Standard reports formatted for board meetings, audit committees, and internal oversight bodies are generated directly from the system.
Pre-travel approval checks available budget against the request before authorization — a constraint surfaces before booking, not after.
Prompt payment requirements applying to public sector vendor relationships are tracked against every payable owed.
Freedom of Information Act and state open-records requests demand fast, complete answers. Because every expense record already carries its full documentation trail, a request that used to mean hours of manual file pulling becomes a search-and-export task.
A municipal finance director, a K-12 business office, and a university grants administrator each measure success differently. ExpenseAnywhere® Gov is pre-configured for each.
State travel policies vary significantly — ExpenseAnywhere® Gov is configured to each state's published rules and regulations.
Purchase documentation trails required by state procurement law are automatically maintained throughout the process.
Freedom of Information Act requests are quickly satisfied with complete, searchable, and exportable expense records.
Support for complex state organizational structures with varying approval hierarchies and budget codes.
Prompt payment requirements and public sector vendor management rules supported natively across all payment workflows.
School district travel rules, board-approved per diem rates, and administrator approval requirements configured precisely to district policy.
Expenses funded by federal education grants (Title I, II, III, IV) automatically coded and documented for compliance reporting.
Specialized expense categories and approval workflows for school sports teams, field trips, and student activity travel.
Reporting and documentation aligned to state department of education requirements and annual audit processes.
Travel spend reports formatted for school board review, superintendent oversight, and public transparency requirements.
NSF, NIH, DOE, and other federal sponsor requirements for travel documentation automatically satisfied for every grant-funded trip.
Travel expenses coded for correct indirect cost treatment, supporting accurate F&A rate proposals and award compliance.
Separate policies for different employee categories — faculty, staff, graduate researchers, visiting scholars — with appropriate approval chains.
Complex university org structures with college-level, department-level, and PI-level approval chains fully supported.
Complete documentation supporting the Single Audit process for universities receiving federal financial assistance over $750K annually.
OMB Uniform Guidance (2 CFR 200) requirements for grant-funded travel automatically satisfied without manual tracking.
Every travel expense coded to the correct grant, award number, and program activity for federal reporting and audit defense.
Expenses allocated to restricted vs. unrestricted funds with documentation for foundation reporting and compliance.
Separate policies and approval chains for different programs, departments, and funding sources within the same organization.
Comprehensive travel spend reporting for board-level oversight, donor reporting, and organizational accountability.
Public budgets are fixed, public, and scrutinized. Pre-travel approval checks available funds against the request before anyone books anything.
Before a travel request is approved, the system checks it against the department's remaining allocation — so a budget conflict surfaces during the request, not during reconciliation three weeks later.
Finance directors and superintendents see exactly how much of each department's or program's budget has been committed, spent, and remains.
When multiple funding sources support the same department — general fund, Title I, a state grant — spend against each is tracked independently.
No rip-and-replace. ExpenseAnywhere® Gov syncs with the financial and HR systems already running in your organization.
