Mission
- Coordinate and Conduct Command Inspection Program
- Coordinate Action on External Audit/Inspections
- Manage Fraud, Waste and Abuse Hotline/Remedies Plan
- Management Control/Command Evaluation
- Provide Assistance to Other IG's
The Inspector General's office performs several functions to ensure that NAVSUP's mission is being accomplished effectively, efficiently and in compliance with the Stategic Plan and applicable rules and regulations. The IG provides the Commander with independent and objective analysis of claimancy operations and other issues of concern. The IG staff accomplishes this through periodic site visits to assess field activities, by providing employees with an avenue to submit their concerns, and by conducting special investigations as tasked by the Commander. The NAVSUP IG, like other Echelon II IGs, also has an additional duty relationship with the Naval Inspector General.
Key functions of the NAVSUP IG office include:
Fraud, Waste and Abuse Hotline. The hotline is a means by which anybody, whether a NAVSUP employee, contractor or member of the general public, can report instances of fraud, waste, abuse of authority or mismanagement. The IG staff conducts independent investigations into alleged misconduct and if substantiated recommends corrective or disciplinary actions to the cognizant officials. To submit a complaint on-line, or to learn more about the hotline program, call our Hotline Coordinator at 1-800-944-8630 (complaints) or (717) 605-7475 (information).
Command Assessment Program. The IG staff, augmented by a team of subject matter experts from throughout the NAVSUP claimancy, periodically visits each field activity to assess its readiness, effectiveness and efficiency; to assess the quantity, quality and management of available resources; and to provide assistance and training as required. For more information about the assessment process, or to see the schedule of upcoming site visits, call our Command Assessment Director at (717) 605-7468/7471 or (DSN 430-7468/7471).
External Audit Coordination. The IG office serves as the NAVSUP liaison to organizations that conduct audits, inspections or assessments involving any portion of the NAVSUP claimancy. Those organizations include the Government Accountability Office, the Department of Defense Inspector General, the Naval Inspector General and the Naval Audit Service. To learn more about the audit process, or to see publicly available reports regarding recent audits, call our Audit Director at (717) 605-7246 (DSN 430-7246).
Management Control Program. This program is the means by which NAVSUP complies with the Federal Manager's Financial Integrity Act (FMFIA). The IG office coordinates an annual claimancy-wide review of programs, operations and functional activities to ensure resources are safeguarded and positive action is taken to minimize fraud, waste and abuse. For more information about the Management Control Program call our coordinator at (717) 605-7471 DSN 430-7471.
