Certified by the Department of Treasury (Treasury) as a Federal Shared Service Provider (FSSP), USDA has partnered with Treasury’s Office of Financial Innovation and Transformation and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to facilitate Government Agencies’ use of shared services for financial management.
