Introducing SAF/FMFO Accounting Policy & Operations

As part of a SAF/FMF reorganization, SAF/FMFC-A Air Force Accounting and Finance Office (AFAFO) and SAF/FMFS Air Force Accounting Operations Center (AFAOC) have joined forces as a NEW organization, SAF/FMFO (Accounting Policy and Operations), effective 1 Oct 2024.
This reorganization consolidates Air Force Financial Operations accounting support within a centralized organization, from policy development to implementation and sustainment across the Department of the Air Force (DAF). This merger streamlines access to process owners within a single organization and enhances the customer support already being provided to the Commands by increasing the breadth and depth of reach back support.

SAF/FMFO consists of four divisions covering the scope of work and quality products Air Force FM professionals have come to expect from AFAFO and AFAOC – now in one organization. SAF/FMFO’s divisions include Customer Support led by Mr. Bill Sanders, Field Support led by Ms. Kim Burnett, Policy led by Ms. Mick Hale, and Technical Support led by SAF/FMFO Deputy, Mr. T.J. Souza.

Our customers and FM systems users will still have access to help desk support, Subject Matter Expert (SME) knowledge, Power BI research modules, policy management, monthly users forums, dedicated fiscal year end closeout support, and so much more. With SAF/FM resources better aligned, we are looking forward to this exciting new venture and strive to deliver on our mission to provide overarching DAF FM accounting policy and customer support to strengthen user proficiency, including continuing education, targeted assistance, systems operation and monitoring, data analytics, internal controls, and strategic communications.

Organizational change is essential in today’s ever-transforming business environment and is necessary for maintaining relevance and posterity. Rest assured that our vision will always remain the same – Success through Customer Focus. We here at SAF/FMFO are thrilled to continue supporting the world’s greatest airmen and guardians.
