Audit of Small Business Innovation Research Program Regulations and Operating Procedures
We found that the Department needs to improve its implementation of the minimum requirements related to identifying and preventing fraud, waste, and abuse in the SBIR program. Although the Department is not required to establish its own overall operating procedures and regulations for the SBIR program, it is required to implement the minimum requirements related to fraud, waste, and abuse established in the SBIR Program Policy Directive. We found that the Department did not adequately implement 7 of the 10 minimum requirements.

Audit of Community Service Grants at WDCB-FM College of DuPage, Glen Ellyn, IL, for the Period July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2014, Report No. ASR1508-1604
This report contains the results of our audit of the effectiveness of the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST’s) unliquidated obligation (ULO) review policies and procedures developed in response to an OIG audit report issued in June 2013 (OIG-13-026-A). In that report, we concluded that Department-wide controls over the management of ULOs needed strengthening. Further, effective management of outstanding obligation balances allows agencies to review and deobligate unneeded funds, promoting a better use of federal resources.
