CDFI Fund Releases Preview of CIMS5 Test Site and Training Resources
Test the New Version of the CDFI Information Mapping System and Share Your Feedback
As the CDFI Fund prepares for the October 6, 2025, launch of the new version of the CDFI Information Mapping System (CIMS5), users are now invited to explore a test version of the system and preview its updated features.
The new version of CIMS, accessed through Awards Management Information System (AMIS), will continue to allow organizations to visually define their eligible service areas and investments when applying for CDFI Fund Certification or awards. The redesigned system retains core functionality while offering a more intuitive layout and better integration with AMIS. All maps saved in CIMS4 prior to launching the new version will be available in CIMS5.
To support users during this transition, the CDFI Fund is providing early access to a test CIMS5 Public Viewer along with instructions for use:
Users are encouraged to explore the new version and submit any questions or comments by September 19, 2025, to help inform training materials and support resources. Feedback may be submitted to ithelpdesk@cdfi.treas.gov.
Coming Soon:
- A new user manual and FAQ document
- A recorded training webinar
- Updated support tools integrated directly within CIMS5
