Objective: In 2016, the House Committee on Armed Services asked the DoD OIG to conduct an independent evaluation of the Army’s Tactical Explosive Detection Dog (TEDD) disposition status, including an analysis of transfer and adoption records at the end of the program. The objectives of this evaluation were to determine whether: • the Department of the Army complied with appropriate criteria for the disposition of TEDDs at the time when the disposition of the TEDDs occurred, and • the Secretary of the Air Force, as the Executive Agent for the DoD Military Working Dog (MWD) Program, provided the required management and policy oversight of the TEDD disposition plan.

Evaluation of the Pentagon Force Protection Agency’s Critical Law Enforcement Programs DODIG-2018-071

Our objective was to determine whether the Pentagon Force Protection Agency (PFPA) conducted criminal investigations in accordance with DoD and PFPA policy. Specifically, we reviewed 428 files that the PFPA opened on or after January 1, 2013, and closed on or before December 31, 2016. Of those 428 files, we evaluated 45 closed criminal investigations. We determined that the remaining 383 files were administrative investigations, which were not in the scope of our evaluation. In addition, we evaluated the PFPA Evidence and Weapons Programs to determine whether the PFPA complied with DoD and PFPA policy.
