Department of Defense: Implemented Less than 40 Percent of SIGAR's Audit and Inspections Recommendations and Does Not Have a System for Tracking Them
Abstract
SIGARs oversight mission, as defined by Section 1229 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008, includes providing independent, objective recommendations to promote economy, efficiency, and effectiveness. This evaluation provides an update to our January 2015report that examined the status of SIGAR recommendations made to the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) in performance audits, financial audits, inspections, evaluations, and alert letters issued between January 2008 and June 2014. Specifically, this report provides information on the status of SIGAR recommendations made to DOD between July 1, 2014, and July 31, 2019.The objectives of this evaluation are to (1)analyze the number and status of recommendations, categorize each recommendation by intended outcome, and identify any program improvements or actions to recover questioned costs; and (2) assess DODs system for tracking SIGARs recommendations and the extent to which DOD took action to resolve open recommendations in a timely manner.
