The Division of Payment Management has over 30 years experience providing grant and grant-like payments,
cash management, and grant accounting support services to Federal Agencies. DPM uses a custom-developed
Payment Management System (PMS) that provides awarding Agencies and Grant recipients the tools to manage
grant payment requests, and disbursement reporting activities. The PMS system has been selected by the
Chief Financial Officers Council - by authority of OMB - as one of the two non-DoD grants payment systems
for use by the entire Federal Government. PMS leverages efficient business processes, state-of-the-art
information technology, E-Government initiatives, and business expertise to build a critical link in the
operation of Federal Financial assistance programs. PMS is a full service centralized grants payment and
cash management system. The system is fully automated to receive payment requests, edit them for accuracy
and content, transmit the payment to either the Federal Reserve Bank or the U.S. Treasury for deposit into
the grantee's bank account, and record the payment transactions and corresponding disbursements to the
appropriate account(s).
