To succeed, OPM requires its financial management systems to produce reliable, accurate, timely, and consistent financial information that enables effective management of its resources and delivery of products and services throughout the nation. The Financial Systems Modernization Project Office (FSMPO), within the Office of the Chief Financial Officer, was created to lead, direct, and coordinate all processes and activities to modernize OPM?s financial management and procurement systems and reengineer business processes to meet OPM?s financial management responsibilities within the specified budget and in accordance with internal policies and procedures, while complying with applicable laws and regulations as defined by the central regulatory agencies.
