Introducing the Oracle Financial ERP Business Suite of Accounting Applications in the Federal Government of UAE- Second Phase - Project No. 57958

<< Back

The Ministry of Finance and Industry (MOFI) of UAE has launched an ambitious reform programme aimed at modernizing public resources management and increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of federal government spending. The initiatives include strengthening the strategic budgeting process and introducing performance based budgeting across the federal government, modernizing the accounting and information systems used in government financial management and improving efficiency in cash management.

UNDP UAE technical assistance in all the above areas has been ongoing since 2003. It is delivered in the form of high-level advisory services and intensive capacity building programme targeting 40 federal ministries and autonomous agencies (up to 800 federal government staff). As a result, a uniform medium-term framework to cost budgets across the Federal Government and activities have been reorganized within programs and subprograms to facilitate priority setting, costing and monitoring. Another key component of the program is the development of a new Financial Management Information System (FMIS) that has been fully operational since January 2007.
