Audit Report AUDIT OF NRCS COMPLIANCE UNDER THE DIGITAL ACCOUNTABILITY AND TRANSPARENCY ACT (DATA ACT)
OIG-20-A-03 Status of Recommendation Recommendation 1:
We recommend that NRC enhance its internal control and detective procedures surrounding DATA Act submissions.
Procedures should include reviewing all records in File C and verifying that they have corresponding transactions in Files D1 and D2. Additionally, NRC should consider increasing the size of samples selected for record level testing between Files C, D1, and D2.
Agency Response Dated December 4, 2020:
Completed. The Office of Administration (ADM) has created a tool that automatically compares all records in File C to Files D1 and D2 to ensure that there are corresponding transactions for each record. In addition, this tool allows ADM to perform record level testing between Files C, D1, and D2 for 100% of the transactions.
OIG Analysis:
OIG observed the tool created by ADM and verified that it automatically compares all records in File C to Files D1 and D2 and allows ADM to perform record level testing between Files C, D1, and D2 for 100% of the transactions. The recommendation is now closed.
Status:
Closed}}
