geographically co-located. In FYs 2013 and 2014, we will continue to enhance our LiveMeeting

Ensuring the Integrity of Our Annual Financial Statements:
The Chief Financial Officers Act
of 1990 requires our OIG or an independent external auditor, as determined by OIG, to audit our
financial statements in accordance with applicable standards. We strive to obtain an unqualified audit
opinion, which attests to the fair presentation of our financial statements and demonstrates our
commitment to sound financial management practices. FY 2012 marked the 19th consecutive year we
received an unqualified opinion on our financial statements.
Conducting Onsite Security Control and Audit Reviews:
We will continue to conduct ongoing
Onsite Security Control and Audit Reviews (OSCAR) in our offices. OSCAR ensures our offices follow
established security policies and procedures and that management controls are in place to deter and
detect waste, fraud, and abuse. We require office managers to submit a corrective action plan providing
details on the actions they will take to correct any deficiency cited during the review. We monitor these
corrective plans to ensure we address and resolve each deficiency.
Open Government:
We are using the Open Government principles of transparency, participation, and
collaboration to increase public knowledge of and trust in our programs and operations. In April 2012,
after a period of public and employee engagement, we published our refreshed
Open Government Plan
( ). The plan describes
major initiatives that we expect to accomplish from calendar year 2012 through 2014 and includes
specific milestones. We will report on our accomplishments through our
Open Government portal
( ).
