UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 OFFICE OF THE INSPECTOR GENERAL December 13, 2018 MEMORANDUM TO:
Chairman Svinicki FROM:
Hubert T. Bell /RA/
Inspector General
SUBJECT:
AUDIT OF NRCS PROCESS FOR DEVELOPING AND COORDINATING RESEARCH ACTIVITIES (OIG-19-A-06)
Attached is the Office of the Inspector Generals (OIG) audit report titled Audit of NRCs Process for Developing and Coordinating Research Activities. The audit objective was to assess the effectiveness and efficiency of the development, use, and coordination of research activities.
OIG found that NRCs process for developing, using, and coordinating research activities is adequate; however, opportunities to improve effectiveness and efficiency exist. Specifically, NRC should improve its processes for work requests, tracking research activities, and the use of quality survey information.
If you have any questions, please contact Dr. Brett M. Baker, Assistant Inspector General for Audits, at (301) 415-5915 or me, at (301) 415-5930.
