Intelligence Center, Pacific
Abstract
This is our final report on the Audit of the Intelligence Center, Pacific, for your information and use. The audit was made from January to August 1989 at the request of the Commander, Intelligence Center, Pacific (IPAC). The objectives of the audit were to determine whether the resources provided for mission and support functions at IPAC had been efficiently and effectively managed; to evaluate compliance with applicable laws and regulations; to evaluate requirements satisfaction and support functions necessary to accomplish the mission; and to evaluate the adequacy of existing internal controls. IPAC is a joint subordinate command of the U.S. Pacific Command (USPACOM) and provides all-source intelligence support to the USPACOM and its subunified commands. IPAC management and staff made considerable efforts to assist our audit team in identifying problem areas and appropriate corrective actions. During the audit, there was a scheduled change of command at IPAC. The former and present Commanders, IPAC, and the Director for Intelligence, USPACOM, closely monitored the progress of the audit grid began corrective actions when we found problems and made recommendations. IPAC also initiated an aggressive tracking program to ensure that our recommended actions were completed. Overall, IPAC was fulfilling its mission responsibilities, but needed to manage operations more efficiently and economically. In addition, IPAC's implementation of an internal management control program was incomplete, and oversight of the program was inadequate. The results of the audit are summarized in the following paragraphs, and the details, audit recommendations, and management comments are in Part II of this report.
