Monitoring System (POPSP-PCMS) is a system that monitors the

POPS Plan implementation of local government units. It simplifies

the process of planning and implementation in terms of

monitoring and report generations. It also serves as a POC

directory both for the councils and Technical Working Groups

(TWG) of the POPS Plan. Further, it assists LGUs in determining

the allowable Confidential Fund (Annual Computation of CF) as

per Joint Memorandum Circular (JMC) No. 2015-01 dated January

8, 2015, “Guidelines on the Entitlement, Release, Use, Reporting,

and Audit of Confidential and/or Intelligence Funds.”

(D) Objectives, Strategies, Targets, Indicators, and Baseline Data;

(E) Critical Policies, Programs, Projects, Services, and Activities;

(F) Funding Requirements;

(G) Actual Allocation;

(H) Reporting Form 1;

(I) Reporting Form 2;

(J) POC Secretariat Report; and

(K) POPS Plan Summary.

PCMS. This report would be the basis of the programmer in

investigating and resolving such system errors. The forms must

be sent to the official e-mail address of the Interim NPOC

Secretariat. The Secretariat shall not entertain phone

calls/emails on issues encountered in the system without the

use of the said template.
