Celebrating Excellence in OPM Financial Reporting

OPM is honored to be recognized by the AGA (formerly Association of Government Accountants, a leading professional association in financial management), as OPM produced an award-winning FY 2022 AFR through the AGA’s Certificate of Excellence in Accountability Reporting (CEAR) Program.

Excellence in Accountability Reporting award.

The CEAR Program was established in collaboration with the Office of Management and Budget and the Chief Financial Officers Council to assist Federal agencies with performance and accountability reporting. Through the CEAR program, agencies improve accountability by streamlining reporting and enhancing reports' effectiveness to highlight the agency’s accomplishments and financial status throughout the fiscal year.

The CEAR Program publicly recognized OPM, along with other winning Federal agencies, on the high-quality AFR that effectively illustrate financial and program performance with both accomplishments and challenges, as well as outstanding efforts in preparing AFR that increased accountability, transparency, innovation, collaboration, and results. OPM looks forward to continuing commitments on the financial excellence journey and offering greater value to our customers and the public.
