The government says it paid 7,900 of 13,575 IntegraPR invoices, 58 percent

On August 24, 2026, El Nuevo Día reports that, even though only 58 percent of invoices pending before the government have been paid, Office of Management and Budget executive director Orlando Rivera Berríos showed himself pleased this Monday with IntegraPR's performance. Of a total of 13,575 invoices registered, 7,900 have been paid as of today. All, he said, invoices of fiscal year 2026 to the present. They are pre-audit processes pending on the agency's part. He acknowledged there may be invoices more than 60 days in arrears, but argued that is not a system problem, rather that the agency did not pay earlier. The full body was truncated when opened. What is indexed at that URL is copied.

Norma Burgos Andújar, secretary of the Governorship, specified that at the Department of Health they have paid 367.3 million dollars on 2,779 orders, and at the Administration of Families and Children 64 orders for 22.6 million. She did not specify how many orders they have pending. She called the briefing shortly after the PPD Senate caucus denounced a payments collapse. Metro, the same 24th, had put other La Fortaleza figures as of August 21: 6,028 payments and 10,355 invoices. El Nuevo Día, on the 24th, puts 7,900 of 13,575. Two counts, possibly two cutoffs. They are not averaged.

The newspaper reported that, because of the arrears, the government chose to extend through October the period to pay invoices or services of the prior fiscal year, whose original deadline was August 29. Orlando Rivera Berríos, in the indexing, spoke of asking the Financial Oversight Board to extend a few days, and of a blackout between June 26 and July 7 to shut one system off and turn the other on. It is not because the system failed, he said. It is normal in implementation. That attribution is his.

July 8 was the launch that other August notes already covered. On the 11th, Primera Hora covered the defense by PRITS, OGP, Hacienda, and AAFAF. The 24th is the 58 percent and Health's 367.3 million. It is not used to read Deloitte's 2,920 incidents that Metro put the same day; that letter is another URL. IntegraPR has several beats. This is La Fortaleza acknowledging arrears and defending the ERP.

What remain are 7,900, 13,575, 58 percent, 367.3 million, and October. A reader who wants Norma Burgos Andújar's briefing has the El Nuevo Día URL at the foot. This is not original reporting.
