PMC OVERVIEW

Process Management and Compliance strengthens the Army’s business operations by providing an integrated, enterprise-wide approach to financial management. Through the Army Process Portal, the Army’s single, authoritative source for financial management, PMC consolidates more than 24 end-to-end business processes and 500 sub-processes, aligning them with financial management policy, system guidance, posting logic, and internal control requirements. This standardization enhances operational readiness and reinforces a culture of audit discipline and success.

PMC also serves as the Army’s first line of defense for financial reporting risk. Through the Army’s Continuous Monitoring Program, it assesses key business process controls and information technology application controls, and reports results to responsible process owners and performers. CMP outcomes drive targeted remediation, strengthen the Army’s audit posture, and are incorporated into the Army’s Annual Statement of Assurance.
