Course Overview

Financial management is a wide-ranging organization function. It often becomes challenging to keep a track of all the activities of it especially in case of large organizations. Since various activities of financial management are interwoven together it calls for an integrated system that streamlines all the related data and information at one place.

What is the IFMIS system? Integrated financial management information system (IFMIS) is a fusion of various information and communication technologies that bring together the functions of budgeting, accounting, financial reporting, cost control, debt management and auditing processes to help the organizations in managing various financial aspects.

IFMIS allows enhanced financial management capabilities. IFMIS software can be prefabricated or tailor-made as per the organization’s needs. With IFMIS, organizations, government or otherwise can manage their spending, cost, budgets and resources.

IFMIS also popularly referred to as Integrated Financial Management Information System, can be assimilated with other functional information systems such as human resource information system or production information system for better supervision.

IFMIS is found to be particularly relevant in a situation where the economic infrastructure of an organization has become outdated. An adequately operational IFMIS helps promote better governance for the entity.

It provides real-time financial data through which managers are able to keep updated with budgets, monitor any variance occurring in the planned expenses and thereby take prompt corrective actions.

How can transparency be achieved in the usage of financial data? How can accountability be appointed in such cases? How information technology can be used to strengthen decision-making skills? How financial data of various years can culminate for better planning? How can the organization achieve better financial control through automation?

How can integrated financial management help public sector organization? These are some of the questions and problems that pose themselves in front of entities when handling financial data. IFMIS helps in simplifying these issues.

It stores financials of previous years and a complete database of spending, budgets, inventories, assets and liabilities which enables better supervision, monitoring and control. It is becoming the need of the hour for complex organizations running multiple departments to make itself, not just aware of benefits provided by IFMIS but also become well familiar with its functioning.
