Statement of Donald Mancuso Deputy Inspector General Department of Defense Before the Subcommittee on Government Management Information and Technology House Government Reform Committee, United States House of Representatives on Defense Financial Management

Abstract

In testimony before this subcommittee almost exactly one year ago, the Deputy Inspector General described the huge scope and unparalleled complexity of DoD finance and accounting operations, as well as the Department's realization during the 1990's that virtually all of its administrative processes were outmoded and unaffordable in their current forms. Likewise, new statutory requirements for audited annual financial statements caught the Department unprepared and without the automated systems needed to compile commercial type accounting data. Along with all other DoD management sectors, the financial management community embarked on a long-term reform effort with particular emphasis on developing a new generation of modern, more standardized and networked systems.
