==Why CPSMS==
Line 12 ⟶ 30:
MISs based on post facto data feeding suffer from drawbacks of inefficiencies, inconsistencies, gaps and perennial reconciliations, as they are not integrated with the process flow. CPSMS attempts to address this, and the associated issues of transparency and accountability related to the SPV mode of implementation, keeping all the advantages of the mode intact.

==Modus Operandi==
Line 24 ⟶ 35:
Post registration, CPSMS will enable one to one validation or payment authorization of each release of funds, whether expenditure, advance, or transfer. The corresponding instrument number and amount for any release would need to be entered in the system at the time of approval, before the actual transaction. Through the CPSMS-CBS interface, this information would be shared with the banks’ CBS and an instrument of payment will be honored by banks only when the corresponding entry is received through the CPSMS.
▲The system is now available in all the central ministries and all the state, ministry and scheme reports are available to users in these ministries. The system is being implemented in the four states of [[Madhya Pradesh]], [[Bihar]], [[Mizoram]] and [[Punjab, India|Punjab]]. The CPSMS-CBS interface is now functional and is providing real time information exchange with the banks. The Planning Commission has also decided to fast-track work on the system.<ref>[http://www.business-standard.com/india/news/planning-commission-fast-tracks-scheme-to-monitor-social-projects/20/28/364279/ Planning Commission fast-tracks scheme to monitor social projects]</ref>
▲CPSMS has made significant strides since its initial roll out. The dedicated web portal of CPSMS is operational and has registered more than 8.00 lakhs hits. All the Plan Schemes of Civil Ministries have been mapped and about 75,000 Sanctions were issued in 2009-10. All releases from the Government of India under Plan Schemes are now made through CPSMS, and all agencies receiving these releases are registered on the CPSMS Portal. More than 8,00,000 agencies have been registered. Ministry, Scheme, State-wise, District, NGO, Individual data of releases from GOI is now available centrally on CPSMS in real time. The CPSMS data is fully reconciled with the accounting data of Controller General of Accounts.
