FY 2023 Top DoD Management Challenges

The Top DoD Management Challenges document identifies the top management and performance challenges impacting the DoD for FY 2023 and beyond. Each Inspector General is required by law to prepare this annual statement summarizing what the IG considers the “most serious management and performance challenges facing the agency.” These challenges are based on the DoD OIG’s independent research, assessment, and judgment; previous oversight work and oversight work of other organizations; congressional hearings and legislation; input from DoD officials; and issues raised by the media. The DoD OIG also considers and assesses the DoD’s progress in addressing these challenges. This report provides Congress and the DoD’s civilian and military leaders an independent assessment of the management and performance challenges confronting the DoD. Finally, the Top DoD Management Challenges document must be included in the DoD’s annual financial report.

Independent Auditor’s Reports on the DoD FY 2022 and FY 2021 Financial Statements (DODIG-2023-031)

On November 15, 2022, the DoD published the DoD FY 2022 Agency Financial Report, which includes the FY 2022 and FY 2021 Agency-Wide Basic Financial Statements.  The DoD OIG performed an audit of these Basic Financial Statements and issued a disclaimer of opinion—meaning that the auditors could not obtain sufficient, appropriate audit evidence to support an opinion.

Project Announcement: FY 2023 Review of the DoD’s Compliance with the Federal Information Security Modernization Act of 2014 (Project No. D2023-D000CP-0026.000)

We plan to begin the subject review in November 2022. Public Law 113-283, title III, section 3555, "Federal Information Security Management Act of 2014," December 18, 2014, requires each Federal agency to conduct an annual independent evaluation to determine the effectiveness of the agency's information security program and practices. The objective of this review is to determine the effectiveness of the DoD’s information security policies, procedures, and practices and provide an annual independent evaluation in accordance with the Federal Information Security Modernization Act of 2014. We may revise the objective as the review proceeds, and we will also consider suggestions from management for additional or revised objectives.
