Security Certification Statement
For the
USAID New Management System (NMS)
This Certification has been performed to conform with the system authorization requirements of
Office of Management and Budget Circular A-130 and to assist in remedying the NMS Security
and Access Controls “material weakness” reported under the Federal Manager’s Financial
Integrity Act.
Attached are the findings from the security certification evaluation of the New Management
System. The evaluation summarizes findings and presents recommendations. Also attached is a
proposed accreditation statement for your review and signature.
Based on the report and my judgment, I hereby certify that the results of NMS testing and
evaluation demonstrate that NMS security provisions are adequate subject to implementation of
the corrective actions referenced below.
In addition, weighing the remaining residual risks against operational requirements, I recommend
that you authorize continued operation of the NMS under the following restrictions:

NMS is accredited until its replacement by the IFMS.

NMS accreditation will be withdrawn should its operation resume at USAID mission
sites.

NMS accreditation will be withdrawn should the following corrective actions fail to
be implemented by the times designated:
