FY 2012 Field Operations Unit Strategic Priorities Doug Goodman, OCFO Field Operations Manager October 14, 2011
The Lab’s Financial Environment in FY 2012 • The Lab’s need to attain greater operational and financial efficiencies in order to stay competitive in a more challenging federal environment • Continued pressure to execute large sponsor budgets (e.g., ARRA) compared with earlier fiscal years • Stronger/greater ability to accurately forecast our budgets and costs to both internal/external audiences • Respond to an increasing number of internal and external financial audits
Major FY 2012 Strategic Priorities • Successfully execute our FY 2012 sponsor and indirect budgets, without funds control issues and violations • Continue to support the Director’s Strategic Initiatives (e.g., Carbon Cycle 2.0, NGLS, Efficiency Campaign, Budget Atomization) • Continue to drive institutional change with respect to our financial processes, systems, and reports • P2C and eSRA – continue to develop and implement standard, efficient WFO system and processes • Lab Budget Planning System – UPS continues to lead the charge for systems and reports improvements/enhancements • Financial Systems Modernization (FSM) Project – continue to generously provide our knowledge, expertise and support to this multi-year project
Major FY 2012 Strategic Priorities (cont’d) • Continue to develop better, more accurate Spend Plans that rely less on the Budget Office calibrating and discounting them • Continue better integration/teamwork/collaboration between Field Operations and other CFO business units, especially with the Budget Office and OSPIP • An increased focus on training and development • Re-launch of the Core Financial Management Program • Implement the Financial Management Certification Program • Increased level of supervisory management training
