Which step is last in the MPO processing cycle?

• A. HARM verifies action
• B. AFO/DFAS distributes Output
• C. HARM prepares MPO
• D. HARM uploads MPO to CMS

Answer: (A)

The last step is HARM verifies action. After the MPO is prepared, uploaded to the CMS, and the output is distributed to the appropriate offices, the final step checks that everything was completed correctly. Verification acts as the quality control to confirm that all actions were carried out, records are accurate, and there are no outstanding issues. This closing check ensures data integrity, proper distribution, and readiness for audit or final closure. Earlier steps establish the MPO, submit it to the CMS, and deliver the results; verification comes at the end to certify that the entire process was executed properly.
