Improving Financial Performance A Message About Improving Financial Performance From Linda Springer Agencies On Track with Financial Performance July 12, 2004 - " With the third quarter of the current fiscal year (FY) now behind us, Federal agencies are entering the homestretch of the annual financial reporting cycle. Throughout the year, and for the first time ever, agencies submitted quarterly financial statements within 21 days of the end of the quarter. Using this as a yardstick to gauge their ability to meet financial reporting deadlines, agencies appear to be on track for meeting the November 15th Performance and Accountability Report (PAR) submission date." Progress and Improvement in Financial Performance May 10, 2004 - "Improved financial performance isn't something that happens overnight. It takes time, preparation, and discipline. Overall, the financial performance of the Federal government continues to improve as we increase visibility into the performance of each agency and the entire federal government. Due to this visibility, the agencies continue to take their fiscal position seriously and are making marked progress and improvement." Making Headlines February 5, 2004 - "Financial management continues to make the headlines. And for good reason - people care about their investments. The American citizen is no exception. Taxpayers need to know that their government's finances aren't being wasted - that the right programs are being funded at the right levels. Are the accounting books in order? Do we know what it costs to perform our activities? Are our processes efficient? Can we get accurate financial information to government decision makers when they need it? Effective financial managers can answer these questions. And first class financial management organizations can answer them positively. The Improved Financial Performance initiative of the President's Management Agenda is helping Federal Government financial managers to do just that."
