is issued soon after the beginning of the fiscal year, highlights urgent issues for the Department as a whole. On November 15,
2012, the IG issued the following memorandum identifying the Department-wide top management challenges for FY 2013:

As required by law, we have identified the Department of Transportation’s (DOT) top
management challenges for fiscal year 2013. A safe and well-managed transportation
system is key for the U.S. economy and the quality of life for the traveling public. To
maintain and modernize all modes of transportation, the Department spends over
$70 billion annually on a wide range of programs. Consequently, it is critical for the
Department to carry out its mission within a framework of rigorous stewardship of
taxpayer funds, and we continue to support the Department’s efforts through our
audits and investigations.
Global and domestic travel are projected to significantly increase the demand on our
transportation system, and the Department faces considerable challenges in improving
the Nation’s surface infrastructure and airspace. A key issue is the Next Generation
Air Transportation System—a multibillion-dollar effort to modernize the U.S. air
traffic control system. The Department is working diligently to address numerous
challenges we have identified over the years with this highly complex undertaking.
However, much work remains to move from planning to implementation, tighten cost
and schedule controls, and better define benefits and an end state for users.
It is also critical that the Department take every opportunity to make efficient use of
funds through improved acquisition and grant management—an ongoing challenge
with multi-modal impact. This past year, our work also highlighted the need for the
Department to better safeguard its investments in key assets to support or expand
transportation. These challenges include enforcing reforms to business practices,
closely overseeing financing plans, and protecting critical information systems.
