Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency
Report Description
In FY 2018, CIGIE continued to meet its mandated missions, and through this report, we present CIGIE’s accomplishments in FY 2018 reflecting our efforts in meeting our mandate. Together, the work of the OIG community resulted in significant improvements to the economy and efficiency of programs government-wide, with potential savings totaling approximately $49.3 billion. With the OIG community’s aggregate FY 2018 budget of approximately $2.5 billion, these potential savings represent an approximate $20 return on every dollar invested in the OIGs. In Background, we summarize the Council’s history and the Inspector General Empowerment Act of 2016, the most recent enhancement to the Inspector General Act of 1978. We also highlight some of the accomplishments of CIGIE’s standing committees in FY 2018. Then, in Strategic Plan Business Goal Accomplishments, we describe CIGIE’s accomplishments under FY 2018’s four major strategic business goals. Next, we summarize current issues of concern to CIGIE members in Key Legislation Affecting the IG Community and Shared Management and Performance Challenges. We then offer perspective on IG Community Accomplishments and provide Contact Information for CIGIE Members. Finally, we recognize the recipients of the most noteworthy 2018 Annual CIGIE Awards.
