Agency Priority Goal

Modernizing Government Payments to Prevent Theft, Loss, or Delay

On March 25, 2025, the President signed Executive Order (EO) 14247 and EO 14249, directing the U.S. Department of the Treasury (Treasury) to modernize the government’s payment infrastructure and enhance its ability to prevent waste, fraud, and abuse. This work supports greater operational efficiency, financial integrity, and improved customer experience across all federal payment and collection work.

To adhere to the EOs and decrease checks and increase electronic payments, Fiscal Service is partnering with federal agencies to:

• Understand and evaluate payment recipients and business processes that are unique to each agency,
• Identify challenges specific to agencies and work together to develop solutions, and
• Support agencies in issuing electronic payments to cut cost and improve speed and security.

Fiscal Service is available to address questions and discuss barriers and opportunities to improve the payment experience.

Fiscal Service can help agencies with:

• Implementing electronic payment solutions,
• Developing targeted promotional materials (website resources, check inserts/postcards, letters),
• Evaluating processes and forms for enhancements,
• Analyzing payment data to help in identifying appropriate methods, and
• Supporting the agency with regulatory compliance.

We look forward to hearing from you. Please contact us at apg@fiscal.treasury.gov to request information or to set up a session to discuss opportunities to implement electronic payment solutions.
