Top Management and Performance Challenges

The OIG’s top challenges for the year, issued in November 2010, are listed below. Many of the challenges from last year’s list, such as counterterrorism, are long-standing challenges that remain on the list.

The challenge of “Sharing of Intelligence and Law Enforcement Information” was incorporated into other challenges and removed as a separate entry on the list. In addition, the “Financial Crimes” challenge was expanded to include “Cyber Crimes.” “Grant Management” and “Recovery Act Funding and Oversight” were combined into one challenge.

We added two challenges to the previous list:  “Southwest Border Security Issues” and “Violent and Organized Crime.”
