The OIG Strategic Plan for 2008 through 2011 sets a results-oriented, risk-focused vision for our office, and describes the six fundamental values—independence, integrity, excellence, professionalism, empowerment, and commitment to the public interest—that will shape our decisions and day-to-day operations. As discussed in the Strategic Plan, we will focus on achieving three primary goals: (1) conduct our statutorily legislated requirements; (2) broaden coverage of the Board’s mission areas to enhance economy, limit risk, and detect and prevent fraud, waste, and abuse; and (3) enhance efficiency and effectiveness of the OIG’s operations and communications. The plan sets specific objectives for each goal. Through our audits and attestations, inspections and evaluations, investigations, legal services, and quality assurance programs, we will build strategic partnerships with the Board and other stakeholders to achieve results, while continually practicing and preserving the independence, objectivity, and professionalism that are at the heart of our work.
