The Joint Financial Management Improvement Program of the federal government is a cooperative undertaking of the Department of the Treasury, the Government Accountability Office (GAO), the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), and the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). The JFMIP Principals are the OMB Director; the Secretary of the Treasury; the Director of OPM; and the Comptroller General of the United States, GAO; working in cooperation with each other and with operating agencies to improve and coordinate financial management policies and practices throughout the government.

Since 1971, the JFMIP Principals have sponsored an annual award program directed to excellence in financial management. The award was established to recognize senior financial management executives who, through outstanding and continuous leadership in financial management, have been principally responsible for significant economies, efficiencies and improvements in the government. In 1981, the award was designated as the Donald L. Scantlebury Memorial Award in honor of the Chief Accountant of the GAO and the chairman of the JFMIP Steering Committee.

Nominations are due by January 5, 2009.

Mon, 08 Sep 2008 00:00:00 EST http://www.cfoc.gov/documents/Completing_FY2008_Fin-Perf_Reports.pdf This memorandum provides agencies and OMB Resource Management Offices (RMOs) with guidance for completing the Budget, Performance, and Financial Snapshot; the Citizens’ Report; and the Annual Performance Report. The transition to a new Administration in FY 2009 requires temporary adjustments to our reporting structure for Performance and Accountability Report (PAR) pilot agencies. The documents at issue will be the Annual Performance Report (APR) and the Citizens’ Report which will contain data from the APR. Since pilot agencies incorporate their APR into their congressional justification, they will need to update their APRs to include FY 2010 performance targets which will be submitted with the FY 2010 budget by the next President.

Each format will contribute to the overall standardization of post award reporting across the government. These standard formats are designed to enable electronic reporting and enhance the government’s ability to report on how grant dollars are used. Grantees will benefit from the standard formats, reducing the administrative burden currently associated with post award reporting requirements.
