With the assistance of a working group consisting of most of the CFO Act agencies and shared service providers, the Office of Financial Innovation and Transformation (FIT) has developed a library of FFM Business Use Cases which reflect the business needs, or requirements that an agency must follow, in the financial management community.
The FFM Business Use Cases are grouped below by end-to-end business processes, and the Business Use Case Overview provides some additional information about how the Use Cases are established.
