IRA - Oversight of the Inflation Reduction Act for Distressed Borrowers With Direct Loans That Took Extraordinary Measures to Avoid Delinquency-Final Report
OIG evaluated the internal controls that the Farm Service Agency designed and established to respond to risks it identified related to (1) consistent and accurate reviews of applications for assistance and (2) reducing improper payments of the Inflation Reduction Act Section 22006 Extraordinary Measures Assistance program funds.
This audit evaluated the Library’s consistency, timing, and accuracy of information technology project direct labor costs and updates to the original estimate(s) and Project Status Reports for IT projects started in October 2021 or later.
What Office of Inspector General Found:
The Library has not implemented effective controls over direct labor hour reporting for information technology projects.
Policies and procedures to govern ongoing development and maintenance programs have not been implemented.
Project Portfolio Management does not adequately protect IT projects from being deleted in Project Portfolio Management.
The Office of the Inspector General recommends that the Library of Congress:
1. Develop and implement internal controls to periodically reconcile GovTA direct labor hours to Project Portfolio Management project hours on a regular basis.
2. Develop and implement internal controls to ensure that direct labor hours are correctly assigned to Informational technology projects in both GovTA and Project Portfolio Management (PPM), including hours manually entered into PPM, but not reflected in GovTA.
3. Implement a process to review project hours ignored by Project Portfolio Management and take follow-up actions to record ignored hours from timecards.
4. Complete the development and implementation of policies and/or procedures for the management of programs.
The Farm Credit Administration (FCA) OIG reviewed the system of quality control for the audit organization of the EAC OIG in effect for the year ended March 31, 2024. This report discusses their findings.
