The Chief, Taxpayer Services, should develop a process to monitor and evaluate NARA’s performance under the interagency agreement.

The Chief, Taxpayer Services, should collaborate with the Chief Financial Officer Organization and the IRS Procurement office to review all parts of the interagency agreement with NARA and determine if modifications are necessary and all roles and responsibilities are properly assigned, and document the results of the review and any discussions with NARA.
