Project:  Navy Financial Operations & Transformation Services

The Department of the Navy (DON) has established a Financial Strategy to better understand and transform financial operations to support warfighters and help the DON achieve its mission. The DON has established an aggressive vision for transformation of its financial management (FM) operations into a premier institution and career destination that is aligned with the Department of Defense Financial Management Strategy FY22-26 and the Secretary of the Navy’s strategic guidance.
The vision animating the DON’s Financial Management transformation efforts is that financial operations are executed in modern Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems using standardized business processes with internal controls tested annually based on risk; the DON budget is transparent and executed with fiscal discipline; Senior leaders have access to accurate and timely financial and logistics data, enabling informed decisions; and the FM workforce is inspired, dedicated, and challenged.

 

The Navy's IT Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system governance refers to the framework, policies, and processes used to oversee and manage the Navy's ERP system. This system integrates various business processes and functions such as finance, supply chain management, and human resources into a unified IT platform. Effective governance ensures that the ERP system aligns with the Navy's strategic goals, operates efficiently, and complies with relevant regulations and standards. Key aspects of Navy IT ERP system governance include:

  1. Policy and Framework Development: Establishing policies, guidelines, and a framework for ERP system usage, ensuring that all stakeholders understand and adhere to the same standards and procedures.

  2. Data Governance: Managing the quality, integrity, and security of data within the ERP system, ensuring accurate and reliable information for decision-making.

  3. Compliance and Risk Management: Ensuring the ERP system complies with federal regulations, cybersecurity standards, and internal policies, while identifying and mitigating risks associated with its operation.

  4. Performance Monitoring and Reporting: Regularly monitoring the performance of the ERP system, generating reports, and conducting audits to ensure the system meets its intended objectives and performs efficiently.

  5. Stakeholder Engagement and Communication: Facilitating communication and collaboration among various stakeholders, including IT personnel, end-users, and senior leadership, to ensure their needs and concerns are addressed.

  6. Change Management: Managing changes to the ERP system, including updates, upgrades, and modifications, to minimize disruptions and ensure smooth transitions.

  7. Training and Support: Providing training and support to users of the ERP system to ensure they can effectively use the system and troubleshoot any issues that arise.

By implementing robust governance practices, the Navy ensures that its ERP system supports operational efficiency, enhances decision-making capabilities, and maintains compliance with all relevant standards and regulations.

Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way.
