Description

The Ghana Integrated Financial Management Information System (GIFMIS) is a charter for public financial management that will help achieve the following key objectives:

ii. Produce a single unified chart of accounts and budget classification (for budgeting, accounting and reporting) that is compliant with IMF standards
iii. Develop and implement re-engineered business processes that are best practice
iv. Consolidate the reporting of all government finances within the two years (2013 - 2014) that GIFMIS will be completed • Institute twice yearly support and solidarity meetings with Ghana Immigration Service and Ministry of Finance and Economic Planning to track prospects, progress and problems faced in rolling out GIFMIS
