PFMS

Public Financial management System

Session on: 3 Sept, 2020

The Public Financial Management System (PFMS) is a web-based online software application developed and implemented by the Office of Controller General of Accounts (CGA). PFMS was initially started during 2009 as a Central Sector Scheme of Planning Commission with the objective of tracking funds released under all Plan schemes of GoI, and real time reporting of expenditure at all levels of Program implementation. Subsequently in the year 2013, the scope was enlarged to cover direct payment to beneficiaries under both Plan and non-Plan Schemes.

 

The primary objective of PFMS is to facilitate sound Public Financial Management System for Government of India (GoI) by establishing an efficient fund flow system as well as a payment cum accounting network. PFMS provides various stakeholders with a real time, reliable and meaningful management information system, and an effective decision support system, as part of the Digital India initiative of GoI.

 

Though many State and Central Government Departments and Undertakings are using PFMS, many officials, involved with accounts, project executions and disbursement, are not fully conversant with the functionalities of the software and feel uncomfortable with the Software. The biggest casualty is the maintenance of information security and the proper safety of the Digital Signatures during and after the transactions.
