Representatives from the Department of Budget and Management Region III conducted the annual on-site Full-Time Delivery Unit (FDU) validation for the Fiscal Year 2025 year-end agency performance review for Tarlac State University on Tuesday morning (March 3) at the Main AVR.
The activity aims to assess the university’s physical and financial accomplishments, including income performance, and to monitor the implementation and progress of infrastructure projects.
“From there po, doon natin makikita ‘yung mga gaps and challenges kung saan pwede tayong magtulungan and mag-develop ng catch-up measures to efficiently po ma-achieve ni TSU ‘yung kanyang targets. Magkakasama po tayo at magtutulungan,” Ms. Camiel P. Santos, Budget and Management Specialist II, said.
Joining Ms. Santos are Ms. Thelma Abigail N. Macalino, acting supervising BMS, and Ms. Melissa Joy L. Suba, BMS I, who reviewed the university’s outcome and output targets and accomplishments, some of which include board performance, program accreditation, research and extension programs, as well as budget allocations and obligations.
“All the inputs from the DBM are much welcomed to [improve further] our services for our clients bilang TSU. We will humbly comply with all the input coming from you. We expect something wonderful will happen, because we will be one in pushing for the development of Tarlac State University,” TSU President Dr. Arnold E. Velasco said in gratitude to the DBM team.
Afterwards, the team visited the Lucinda Campus to inspect completed and ongoing infrastructure projects.
The university executives present during the review include Vice President for Administration Atty. Gherold C. Benitez, Vice President for Research, Innovation, and Extension Atty. Wilmark J. Ramos, and Dr. Brendalyn A. Manzano, College of Arts and Social Sciences dean, who represented the Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs. (jlm-OPA)
