| <p><strong>ABC Implementation Status</strong></p> |
| <p><strong>Minerals Management Service</strong></p> |
| <p><strong>Status and Approach:</strong></p> |
| <p>Changed MMS work activities to align with the DOI standard work activities.</p> |
| <p>Many MMS work activities map to a single DOI standard work activity.</p> |
| <p>Employees coding time and financial agreements to new activities beginning </p> |
| <p>October 1, 2003.</p> |
| <p>FY2003 must be closed before FY2004 can be fully functional in ABACIS</p> |
| <p>(FY2004 opened in ABACIS, November 18, 2003)</p> |
| <p>Expect to begin sending FY2004 financial data within the next two weeks.</p> |
| <p>Export file will include obligations and expenditures by transaction.</p> |
| <p>Briefed employees of changes between FY2003 and 2004 with DOI ABC</p> |
| <p>Training Video and locally prepared briefings.</p> |
| <p><strong>Implementation Issues:</strong></p> |
| <p>Cost in DOI Indian Trust activities under represents the true Indian Trust</p> |
| <p>workload and cost.</p> |
| <p>Indian Trust Intermediate Strategies and End Outcome goals not showing</p> |
| <p>full Indian Trust cost.</p> |
| <p>Compliance work done by company, not property type</p> |
| <p>Financial management functions not easily distinguishable between Indian </p> |
| <p>and Federal.</p> |
| <p>Where possible, Indian Trust costs are captured in Indian Trust activities.</p> |
| <p>Common definitions for outputs shared among bureaus.</p> |
| <p>MMS must maintain its own ABC system to provide cost and managerial</p> |
| <p>Information useful to bureau and field managers.</p> |
