This book was released on 2017-08-05 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " Over the years, the Department of Defense (DOD) has initiated several efforts intended to improve its financial management operations and ultimately achieve an unqualified (clean) opinion on its financial statements. These efforts have fallen short of sustained improvement in financial management and financial statement auditability. In this statement, GAO provides its assessment of DOD's progress toward: (1) producing an auditable Statement of Budgetary Resources (SBR) by fiscal year 2014 and a complete set of auditable financial statements by fiscal year 2017, including the development of interim milestones for both aforementioned audit readiness goals; (2) acquiring and implementing new enterprise resource programs and other critical financial management systems; (3) reengineering business processes and instituting needed controls; and (4) implementing a comprehensive business enterprise architecture and transition plan, and improved investment control processes. This statement is primarily based on GAO's prior work related to the department's efforts to achieve audit readiness, implement modern business systems, and reengineer its business processes. GAO also obtained and compared key milestones in a February 2012 DOD briefing on its updated plans to accelerate achieving SBR auditability with the May 2011 Financial Improvement and Audit Readiness plan but did not independently verify the updated"

Book excerpt: The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 requires the Department of Defense (DOD) to describe how its statement of budgetary resources (SBR) will be validated as ready for audit by September 30, 2014. The DOD Comptroller issued the Financial Improvement and Audit Readiness (FIAR) Guidance to provide a standard methodology for DOD components to use to develop and implement financial improvement plans (FIPs), improve financial management, and achieve audit readiness. The Army's FIP for budget execution provides a framework for planning, executing, and tracking essential steps with supporting documentation to achieve audit readiness of its General Fund SBR. GAO is mandated to audit the U.S. government's consolidated financial statements, including activities of executive branch agencies such as DOD. This report identifies the extent to which the Army developed and implemented its General Fund SBR FIP for budget execution in accordance with the FIAR Guidance with regard to (1) determining the scope of activities included in the FIP and (2) completing those activities included in the scope of the FIP. GAO reviewed the Army's FIP to determine whether it contained the elements required by the FIAR Guidance and reviewed test results, status reports, and other deliverables.

Book excerpt: This thesis analyzes the Department of Defense (DoD) Financial Improvement and Audit Readiness (FIAR) Plan using the Balanced Scorecard. Using Niven's methodology of applying the Balanced Scorecard to the nonprofit and government sectors, the purpose of the thesis is to determine if the Balanced Scorecard can assist in execution of the FIAR Strategy to achieve the goal of asserting financial audit readiness by 30 September 2017. The analysis produced a Strategy Map and Balanced Scorecard, which translated the FIAR Strategy into practical objectives, performance measures, targets and initiatives. The thesis revealed that the Balanced Scorecard can be used to assist in FIAR Strategy execution, including recommendations provided to DoD leadership on ways to improve the FIAR Plan.

This book was released on 2017-09-22 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 mandates an audit of DOD's fiscal year 2018 department-wide financial statements. To help achieve this, the DOD Comptroller issued the FIAR Guidance to provide a standard methodology for DOD components to follow to improve financial management and achieve audit readiness, and designated the SBR as an audit priority. Full implementation of the Navy's General Fund FIP for FBWT is essential to achieving audit readiness for its General Fund SBR. The Navy asserted Statement of Budgetary Activity (SBA) audit readiness as of September 30, 2014, and in February 2016 received a disclaimer of opinion on the audit of its SBA for fiscal year 2015. GAO is mandated to audit the U.S. government's consolidated financial statements, which cover activities and balances of executive branch agencies, including DOD. GAO's objective in this report was to determine the extent to which the Navy developed and implemented the Discovery phase of its General Fund FBWT FIP in accordance with the FIAR Guidance. GAO analyzed the Navy's FBWT FIP to determine whether it contained the tasks and activities required by the FIAR Guidance for the Discovery phase. GAO also reviewed the Navy's FBWT FIP key deliverables, such as process narratives and flowcharts, internal control assessments, and test results.
