U.S. Coast Guard - Finance Center (USCG) |
For more than 10 years Macfadden has supported the United States Coast Guard (USCG) Finance Center in its mission to process the financial transactions of the USCG. Our personnel have provided crucial expertise during the USCG's transition from the previous U.S. Department of Transportation Departmental Accounting and Financial Information System (DAFIS) core accounting system to the new Coast Guard Core Accounting System (CAS), based on Oracle Federal Financials.
The transition has significantly improved and enhanced the USCG Finance Center's ability to maintain and track financial transactions for one of the largest agencies in the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). In addition, our team has been a key factor in enabling the USCG to provide financial transaction support to additional DHS agencies, such as the Transportation Security Administration (TSA).
We continue to provide the various types of Software Development Lifecycle Support (SLDC) essential to the integration of new applications with the new Oracle Federal Financials system. We also support the USCG Finance Center with senior management analysts who are responsible for developing reports for the new Coast Guard Oracle Federal Financials core accounting system by using Oracle Developer/Reports/Forms.

 | U.S. Department of Treasury - Financial Management Service (FMS) |
Macfadden designed, developed and deployed an award-winning Integrated Document Management System (IDMS) to support the Treasury Offset Program (TOP) within the Financial Management Service of the U.S. Treasury Department. The fundamental purpose of TOP is to enable the federal government to withhold part or all of a payment to a citizen if the citizen is indebted to the federal government and in arrears in repayment. The TOP generates a significant amount of correspondence and telephone inquiries from affected citizens, especially during income tax season. By digitizing all of the TOP-related correspondence and developing unique methods for automatically processing returned mail within the IDMS, Macfadden enabled the Treasury Department's Financial Management Service to make dramatic cuts in the number of temporary customer service representatives required to handle telephone inquiries during tax season while reducing the time required to answer a caller's questions from hours to a few minutes. Macfadden delivered this highly successful system ahead of schedule and under budget. As a result, Macfadden earned both the Association for Information and Image Management (AIIM) Award for projects requiring superior integration skills and the Kinetic Information Group Process Innovation Award for creative and innovative solutions. After system implementation, the U.S. Treasury Department was able to expedite the collection of more than $4 billion in delinquent debt.
Following deployment of the IDMS, the U.S. Department of Treasury's Financial Management Service (FMS) tasked Macfadden with implementing a series of document archive applications and automating the business process workflow for several departments within FMS. These successful developments provided the basis and the confidence for FMS to proceed with initiating enterprise-wide applications intended to bring similar cost savings to other components of FMS and to migrate the system to the next generation of software that will include a records management capability and a more flexible graphical user interface.
