Audits and special reviews

Audits and reviews of FEC programs and operations determine if programs and operations are compliant, efficient, and effective. Audits and reviews can be limited in scope or broadly defined depending on the topic. The objective is to provide a final report to the Commission and senior leaders that recommends improvements to increase the effectiveness and efficiencies of agency operations.

Additionally, the OIG conducts follow-up assessments to ensure that management has effectively implemented OIG recommendations.
