Letter to the Office of Management and Budget Regarding Implementation of OIG’s Audit Recommendations to Improve DOT’s Charge Card Programs

Government Charge Card Abuse Prevention Act of 2012
Project ID: 
CC-2014-005

Summary

The Government Charge Card Abuse Prevention Act of 2012 requires us to report to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) on the implementation of recommendations we have made to address findings from audits of the Department of Transportation’s (DOT) charge card programs. During fiscal year 2013, we issued one report on DOT’s and the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) purchase card programs, and made five recommendations to strengthen purchase card controls. FAA’s updates to its purchase card policies fully addressed our recommendations. However, DOT has not completed its actions, and two recommendations remain open.
