We recommend that NPPD involve financial management personnel in the procurement of contracts for NPPD's major IUS projects to ensure they are structured to facilitate isolation of costs between development, maintenance, and research and development (i.e., capitalizable vs. expensed), at an individual asset level, in order to enhance traceability of capital costs.
2
We recommend that DHS develop continuous monitoring and testing of IT general controls to identify weaknesses, assess the resulting risks created by any identified IT deficiencies, and respond to those risks through implementing compensating controls.
18
We recommend that USSS employ additional resources and design and implement policies and controls to track, monitor, and report the complete population of its not in evidence counterfeit note inventory, including any note processing backlog.
17
We recommend that USSS establish new, or improve existing, policies, procedures, and related internal controls to ensure the adequate understanding and oversight of assumptions used in significant estimates is maintained by USSS management and continued appropriateness of those assumptions are routinely evaluated.
