Joint Announcement: LGRMS Transition

Following a joint announcement from the Georgia Municipal Association (GMA) and the Association County Commissioners Georgia (ACCG) regarding the dissolution of Local Government Risk Management Services (LGRMS), we want to provide additional clarity on how loss control and prevention services will transition and continue to support both city and county pool members who are covered under GIRMA and Irma, and the Workers Compensation coverage programs.

This transition is being conducted collaboratively by GMA and ACCG to ensure continuity of service and ongoing support for local governments across Georgia. As part of the long-term plan, both associations will establish and operate their own internal Loss Control groups designed to meet the specific needs of their respective memberships.

During the transition period, GMA Loss Control will continue providing loss control and prevention services to both GMA and ACCG members. This approach ensures that there is continuity in services while ACCG completes the process of standing up its internal Loss Control Group.

ACCG and GMA members can expect to continue working with many of the same experienced professionals who have supported their safety and risk management efforts over the years. While organizational structures are evolving, the expertise, responsiveness, and commitment to service that members rely on will continue.

We appreciate the dedication of the LGRMS staff whose work helped build a strong foundation for these programs, and we thank our member governments for their continued trust and partnership. Additional updates will be shared as the transition progresses.
