Financial Management

Financial Assistance Reporting System (FARS)

The FARS is the department wide system used to collect and report on domestic assistance payments.

The FARS is an automated management information system that collects required domestic assistance obligation data from all HHS agencies and produces the annual "Financial Assistance by Geographic Area" report. Recipient funds are identified by state, county, congressional district, city, program title, and the agency that obligated the funds. HHS management, Congress, state and local government officials, grant recipients, and many others use FARS as a primary source of federal financial assistance information.

Performance Standards:
Will produce the annual Financial Assistance by Geographic Area publication within 3 months of the end of the fiscal year, deliver the "Federal Assistance Award Data System" (FAADS) file to the Census Bureau within 30 days following the end of each quarter, respond to prior year's annual publication requests within 2 business days of receipt.
