ASBO New York Partner Frontline (Forecast5) Presents Monthly Data & Analytics Tip

Tuesday, November 4, 2025  
Frontline Education is excited to announce powerful new updates to Comparative Analytics
(CmpA)
 - enhancements designed to make collaboration, transparency, and data-driven planning even more seamless for New York’s school business officials.

At its core, CmpA helps districts better understand their financial and operational performance through data-rich comparisons with peer districts. This latest update takes that capability to the next level.

Peer Groups Enhancements
Building and sharing peer groups has never been easier. Users can now create, duplicate, and share peer groups directly within the Peer Finder tool. Whether you’re working with colleagues across the region or coordinating with your team, this improvement removes the friction from collaboration. Districts can now align on consistent peer sets, ensuring that comparisons are apples-to-apples and decisions are made with shared context.

 
 
 
 
New User Directory Page
Transparency is vital in financial planning and data management. The new User Directory Page gives districts clear visibility into who has access to CmpA and how each user is configured. With just a few clicks, administrators can confirm access levels, streamline onboarding for new staff, and maintain data security with confidence.


Learning Center Updates
To support users in leveraging these enhancements, updated Learning Center articles are now live. These guides walk through each new feature step-by-step, ensuring that every district can maximize the power of Comparative Analytics.

Together, these updates reinforce Frontline’s commitment to helping New York districts make informed, collaborative, and transparent financial decisions. As districts prepare for budget season, there’s no better time to explore how CmpA’s enhanced peer collaboration and user management tools can strengthen your financial storytelling and planning processes.
