The Accounting Guidance: Provision of Management and Support Services through the Memorandum for the Provision of Services (MPS) has been updated to reflect UNDP's transition to its new cloud-based management platform Quantum in January 2023, replacing its previous ATLAS system.

​The accounting guidance on the provision of management and support services has been published. The purpose of this guidance is to prescribe the accounting and reporting in relation to MPS management projects, including those MPS management projects related to COVID-19.

The MPS template is now available in French and Spanish. The two language versions are linked in step 1 of the procedure table (section 3.0).

The new policy enables UNDP to provide management and support services that contribute to a programme government's results upon the agreement of the programme government. This modality cannot be used to deliver development results that UNDP is accountable to achieve under UNDP's programme. The MPS replaces the 2007 Management Service Agreement (MSA), where UNOPS was designated as a service provider.
