  6. UACS and PFM Policy Basis • Master plan for modernizing the financial management system of the government • Executive Order 55 (s. 2011) directs the integration and automation of PFM systems • Improve efficiency, accountability and transparency of public fund use • Contribute to good governance and fiscal discipline as a strategy for inclusive growth and poverty reduction

Deliverables required under EO 55 • Real time online accounting • Monitoring and control of obligations and disbursements • Regular in-year reporting of budget execution • Timely year-end audit reporting of agency financial and physical operations • Comprehensive, timely, accurate and consolidated PFM System

  8. What is UACS? a government-wide harmonized budgetary, treasury and accounting code classification framework to facilitate reporting of all financial transactions of agencies

  9. Why a UACS? • Directed at harmonizing budgetary and accounting classifications and structures for simplifying and consolidating formats for financial reports • Enable reporting of actual revenues and actual expenditures compared to what was projected to be collected and expended in the budget • Enable the comparison of disbursements for programs/projects/activities with their approved appropriationsSource: PFM Reform Roadmap

  10. Where will UACS be used? Every IT system should adopt the UACS for: • Budget cycle - Preparation, Legislation, Execution and Accountability • Reporting Appropriation, Allotment, Obligation, Disbursement • Enabling reporting of actual expenditure against budget appropriation as envisaged in PFM roadmap • Payroll, budget, cash management, budget execution and forward planning • Performance measurement – performance indicators linked to UACS MFOs and outcomes achieved reported against budget and targets
