Survey of Department Compliance with the Federal Activities Inventory Reform (FAIR) Act of 1998 (AUD/PR-03-10)
OIG completed its survey of the Department?s progress in complying with the FAIR Act. The FAIR Act directs federal agencies to issue an inventory each year of all commercial activities performed by federal employees; that is, those activities that are not inherently governmental. OIG found that the Department?s FY 2001 inventory of 3,046 full-time-equivalent positions available for competition was developed in an inconsistent manner and, consequently, was inaccurate. As a result of OIG?s review, the Department has taken a more comprehensive, systematic approach to compiling the 2002 inventory.
