The Community Development Financial Institutions Fund (CDFI Fund) will soon be implementing a new enterprise-wide Awards Management Information System (AMIS). Beginning August 2015 through the fall of 2016, the CDFI Fund will transition from using the myCDFIFund Portal to using AMIS to track organization and application information.
AMIS will completely replace the myCDFIFund Portal as well as the systems and services available from the portal. Therefore, all organizations/individuals doing business with the CDFI Fund will be required to use AMIS. CIMS3 and CIIS will not be replaced by the transition to AMIS at this time.
CDFI Fund applicants, awardees, and allocatees can expect many benefits from AMIS, including online certification and awards applications, easier maintenance of organizational data, enhanced data integration, and a more streamlined process for acceptance of Assistance and Allocation Agreements.
Current myCDFIFund users will be receiving e-mails soon, asking you to “clean up” and re-validate some of the data/information, as well as other program-specific details.
CDFI Fund is developing additional communications to assist you with the transition to AMIS, including training materials such as web-based training and webinars, updates to the website, and a list of frequently asked questions. Questions regarding AMIS can be submitted to the CDFI Fund IT Help Desk at ITHelpDesk@cdfi.treas.gov. To learn more about the CDFI Fund and its programs, please visit www.cdfifund.gov.
