About the Financial Systems Integration Office

The Financial Systems Integration Office (FSIO) within the General Services Administration, was formerly known as the Joint Financial Management Improvement Program (JFMIP) staff office. In December 2004, the JFMIP Principals voted to modify the roles and responsibilities of the JFMIP. As a result the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and the Chief Financial Officers (CFO) Council have worked closely with FSIO staff to update FSIO’s mission and scope of activities.

The FSIO has three major areas of responsibilities:

Core financial systems requirements development, testing and product certification
Supporting the Federal financial community on priority projects
Conducting outreach through an annual financial management conference and other related activities.

FSIO’s is working to:

Develop performance measures (cost, quality, timeliness) to assess the performance of financial services offered by a financial service organization.
Develop standard business processes, data specifications and business rules for core financial management functions (e.g. funds management, payments, receipts and reporting) to be adopted by all federal agencies.
Work with agencies to implement a common government-wide accounting code structure, including an applicable set of definitions and the layout, which federal agencies’ new financial systems must adhere.

The FSIO Executive works closely with the Office of Management and Budget, Office of Federal Financial Management. The FSIO Executive manages the resources and interacts with the CFO Council’s Financial Systems-FSIO Oversight team that was formerly known as the Financial Systems Integration Committee. The FSIO Director is the FMLOB project manager.

The FSIO Executive is Dr. Peter Alterman
