From 1997 to 2003, TEAM Consult worked closely with the Ministry of Finance to develop the customized Financial Management Information System (FMIS) for the Budget Division and Financial Comptroller General’s Office (FCGO). This system comprises of four integrated modules where information is transferred electronically from one module to another through user-defined system utility tools: the Budget Management Information System (BMIS), Line Ministry Budget System (LMBS), Financial Management Information System (FMIS), and District Treasury Control System (DECS). Sub-modules are integrated with all four core modules to work as a single system.
We later provided follow-up support to upgrade the Integrated Financial Management Information System (IFMIS). Upgrading involved implementing a new budget classification system; introducing a new project management system for line ministries (where both expenditure and revenue are reported); implementing a new coding system; improving the electronic transfer of data at the sub-district level; and upgrading the present system of RAS, DECS, FMIS, BMIS, and LMBIS.
TEAM Consult has worked with the Ministry of Finance on a number of other projects since.
