Chief Financial Officers Council

The Chief Financial Officers Council (CFOC) was established by the Chief Financial Officers (CFO) Act of 1990 (Public Law 101-576) and is composed of the CFOs and Deputy CFOs of the 24 largest federal departments and agencies, along with senior officials from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and the Department of the Treasury. The Council works collaboratively to improve federal financial management through shared guidance, working groups, and inter-agency standards. While the CFO Council itself does not operate a developer API program, its remit is closely tied to the larger ecosystem of federal financial management data and APIs administered by Treasury (USAspending.gov, Fiscal Service), OMB (PaymentAccuracy.gov, MAX.gov), and GSA (Performance.gov, SAM.gov).

Chief Financial Officers Council publishes 8 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Agencies API, Awards API, Downloads API, and 5 more. Tagged areas include Federal Financial Management, Federal-Government, Finance, Government, and OMB.

Chief Financial Officers Council’s developer surface includes product news and 17 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Government & Public Sector regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.

The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/.
