Financial Management: Sustained Efforts Needed to Achieve FFMIA Accountability

Overview The ultimate objective of FFMIA is to ensure that agency financial management systems routinely provide reliable, useful, and timely financial information, not just at year-end or for financial statements, so that government leaders will be better positioned to invest resources, reduce costs, oversee programs, and hold agency managers accountable for the efficiency of their programs. To achieve the financial management improvements envisioned by the CFO Act, FFMIA, and more recently, the PMA, agencies need to modernize their financial management systems to generate reliable, useful, and timely financial information throughout the year and at year-end.
