Gao ID: RCED-84-133 June 22, 1984

GAO reviewed the Department of Commerce's implementation of the Federal Managers' Financial Integrity Act.

GAO found that Commerce has made progress in carrying out its responsibilities under the act. However, GAO found that Commerce does not: (1) properly divide its activities into assessable units; (2) adequately document the results of vulnerability assessments; (3) assess certain automatic data processing activities; (4) ensure that internal control reviews were conducted on major program and administrative internal control systems; (5) ensure that all personnel understood the vulnerability assessment process; (6) adequately monitor vulnerability assessments; or (7) have a formal tracking system. In addition, GAO found that Commerce does not perform complete reviews of its accounting systems.
