Audit Initiated of DOT’s IT Budget Requests for Enhancing Security, E-Government Services, and Investment Management
February 23, 2004
Summary
At the request of the Senate Appropriations Committee, we initiated an audit of the Department’s budget requests for enhancing information technology (IT) security, e-Government services, and management of DOT's IT investment. We will determine: (1) whether the IT budget requests from the Office of the Chief Information Officer and the Operating Administrations contain duplicative or overlapping items; (2) the extent to which these requests were adequately planned and coordinated by the Office of the Chief Information Officer; and (3) progress the Department has made to improve IT security, e-Government services, and management of its IT investment.
