Excerpt
Excerpt: The Office of lnspector General conducted a performance audit to evaluate the adequacy, efficiency, and effectiveness of the internal controls over the requisition process, and the timeliness and accuracy of the decisions to forward requisitions to the Production Department and the Printing Procurement Department. The audit included tests of requisitions received during the months of June and August 1998. The audit identified opportunities to improve controls over the requisition process within Customer Services and the Production Department (Production) and the commitment to operate equipment at full or close to full utilization basis. Nine recommendations, when implemented, will improve and strengthen controls over processing requisitions within the Customer Services and Production Department and retain more agency requisitions in-house to maximize manpower efficiently and effectively and achieve full or close to full utilization basis.
