Background:
The FMIS currently collects data via forms based PC front ends, mainframe front ends and file transfers, processes the data in a mainframe VM/CMS environment and stores data on a massively parallel processing back end
database machine (Teradata). It uses 4th generation languages and relational tables to develop applications for transaction processing and reporting, enabling rapid development to provide a flexible system responsive to changing needs and capable of describing complex interrelationships among data as useful information. The information is used for operational processing of the funds flowing to, from, and within the Department, management controls and external reporting requirements, and planning and forecasting activities. In accordance with the CFO Act of 1990, OMB Circular A-127 and other JFMIP requirements FMIS is continuing progress towards an integrated financial management system.
Objectives:
The primary objectives of FMIS are: To automate transaction processing related to the receipt or payment of funds To automate record storage and retrieval related to the process. To support management controls over the process, including internal / external report requirements. To provide reliable information for use in planning for the Department's future needs and assessing its present and past activities.
System Overview
FMIS provides the data necessary to support and prepare the revenue and refund aspect of the IRS custodial financial statement and the GAO financial audit. It takes information from IMF, BMF, and ANMF files, outputs transaction detail reports, and audit trails for all FY cash receipts. In addition, the FMIS application captures all revenue reclassification amounts from IMF, BMF, and ANMF, as well as the CADE application, including credit interest, Earned Income Tax Credits (EITC), refund reversals, all assessment and abatement adjustment transaction, and all returns. The application generates reports including the collections on FICA and Excise tax trust funds.
(BMF) and the Automated Non Master File (ANMF) files. In addition, the FMIS application captures all revenue reclassification amounts from the master files mentioned above, as well as the Customer Account Data Engine (CADE) application, including credit interest, Earned Income Tax Credits (EITC), refund reversals, all assessment and abatement adjustment transaction, and all returns. The application generates reports including the collections on FICA and Excise tax trust funds. In January of 2008, an enhancement was added to the FMIS Custodial Detail Database (CDDB) to load Revenue Receipt and Refund transactions originally taken from the master files and from a number of other FMIS input systems: the LockBox, Integrated Submission and Remittance Processing (ISRP), Electronic Federal Tax Payment System (EFTPS), Federal Tax Deposit (FTD) and End of Day (EOD) processing (part of the Integrated Data Retrieval System (IDRS)). CDDB also receives the Deposit Tickets, Deposit Vouchers, and Refund Schedule Number Summaries from the Interim Revenue Accounting and Control System (IRACS). The current release of the CDDB added the transaction level support for payments and refunds that are summarized in the IRACS. Processing includes GAO Audit Classification, matching between master file and the input systems, summary and reconciliation processing between IRACS data and the input systems, and master file reversal audit processing.

Costs:
The cost of the system clearly depends on the system eventually selected. The study by the consultants suggested that the likely final cost, including staff to run the system and back-filling for staff involved in the implementation process, will be less than 100,000. The break down or risk cost is higher.
