FFMIA (System) Compliance • What it is? • The Federal Financial Management Improvement Act (FFMIA) was enacted by Congress in 1996 • It is a composition of various statutes (i.e., CFO Act), regulations and policies related to financial management improvement • DFAS has encapsulated these requirements into a document called the DFAS bluebook • Why it is important? • Verifies that BSM solution meets applicable federal financial requirements • OSD(C) memo dated 21 Aug 01, requires verification that a system is FFMIA compliant (with a 3rd party verification) prior to providing approval to deploy the new system • PBD 704 called for a BSM risk mitigation strategy in relation to FFMIA compliance

FFMIA Compliance Process Value • Minimizes implementation risk • Drives design toward meeting FFMIA compliancy • Provides robust financial system documentation • Fosters collaborative relationship within DLA, DFAS, and independent assessor • Documents DLA FFMIA compliance process
Lessons Learned • Begin FFMIA compliance process after Release requirements are complete • Engage DFAS FFMR interpreter after initial FFMR assessment • Engage independent assessor after initial FFMR assessment complete • FFMIA needs to be synchronized with test planning • Documentation requirements were much harder and extensive than anticipated • Involved OSD(C) FMMP early and often
