The purpose of this memorandum is to notify you that we are initiating the subject audit. We are conducting this audit in response to allegations made to the DoD Hotline. This is the second audit in a series of projects related to Counter-Islamic State of Iraq and Syria Train and Equip Fund (CTEF).
The objective of this audit is to assess the effectiveness of the DoD’s oversight of CTEF equipment designated for Iraq. We may revise the objective as the audit proceeds, and we will also consider suggestions from management for additional or revised objectives. We plan to perform this audit in accordance with the Government Accountability Office’s generally accepted government auditing standards.
