The NCUA OIG conducted this review in accordance with the DATA Act. Specifically, we conducted this review to assess the completeness, timeliness, quality, and accuracy of fiscal year 2017, second quarter financial and award data submitted for publication on USASpending.gov; and the NCUA’s implementation and use of the government-wide financial data standards established by the Office of Management and Budget and the Department of the Treasury.

We identified lessons learned regarding insurance findings and recommendations we reported in previous audit reports. To accomplish our objective, we compiled and summarized reportable issues concerning insurance under the Public Assistance program from our reports issued in fiscal years 2013–2017; analyzed the insurance findings and recommendations in those reports; and quantified the financial significance of those findings. We determined that from fiscal years 2013–2017, DHS OIG issued 37 reports with 40 recommendations totaling $322.1 million in questioned costs for reportable issues pertaining to insurance. These issues included duplicate benefits, insufficient insurance, and misapplied or misallocated insurance proceeds. Because this special report contains no recommendations, no response from FEMA is required.

The Office of Inspector General examined the completeness, timeliness, and accuracy of NASA’s financial and award data as required under the DATA Act.

Our objective was to determine whether the U.S. Postal Service made purchase card transactions that were potentially illegal, improper, or erroneous. We performed this audit in conjunction with a government-wide audit initiated by the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency, Information Technology Committee, to determine risks associated with government purchase card transactions. The OIG performed this audit with 22 other Inspectors General, generally using the same audit objective, scope, and methodology.

The OIG used data analytics to identify locations with lost or stolen stamp stock shipments. We identified expenses related to lost or stolen stamp stock shipments for the San Juan Stamp Office (SJSO); Fernandez Juncos Station; and Amelia, Bayamon, and Condado Contract Postal Units (CPU) between May 1, 2016, and April 30, 2017. Our objective was to determine whether internal controls over stamp stock shipments were in place and effective at the SJSO; Fernandez Juncos Station; and Amelia, Bayamon, and Condado CPUs.
