This document discusses EAC OIG's planned oversight activities for fiscal year 2025.

Our review of prior Department of Homeland Security Office of Inspector General and U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) oversight reports identified recurring challenges with DHS’ strategic planning efforts. We previously reported that DHS and its components had not promptly updated strategic guidance (1) by mandated deadlines or (2) to reflect new information that would have a significant impact on the risk environment for which the strategic guidance was developed. In conducting this review of reports issued from fiscal years 2018 to 2022, we determined 7 prior DHS OIG reports and 7 prior GAO reports referenced 20 outdated or expired DHS strategic guidance documents.
