The Financial Integrity and State Managers Accountability Act (FISMA) outlines a structured approach to enhancing financial accountability within the Department of Finance. The OSAE's implementation comprises four key phases: Phase I focuses on department-wide risk assessment, Phase II involves identifying and testing controls, Phase III establishes corrective action plans, and Phase IV encompasses subsequent evaluations. These phases include collaborative discussions with executive management, identification of risks and controls, and ongoing monitoring to ensure a robust financial governance framework.
