Recovery Act Accountability
The OCS is working with the Office of Tennessee Recovery Act Management (TRAM) to provide guidance and support to agencies receiving American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) funds. This team will also be responsible for facilitating adherence to the reporting and accountability requirements set forth by the federal government. Visit the Tennessee Recovery website at www.tnrecovery.gov for more information.
Process Improvement
OCS is currently working with Finance and Administration’s Benefits Administration Division (BA) to modify the existing process for managing documents and customer interactions. The project includes a new workflow system which will help division staff efficiently track customer transactions and retrieve stored information. This is a joint effort among the BA staff, OCS, the Office for Shared Technology Services, and the Office for Information Resources.
About the Office of Audit and Consulting Services
The Office of Internal Audit (OIA) assists all levels of management in the achievement of departmental goals and objectives by providing a positive impact on the efficiency and effectiveness of administrative functions and processes. This impact is achieved by the performance of audits, reviews, and other engagements in which the internal controls are evaluated and recommendations for improvement are made.
The Office of Consulting Services (OCS) offers practical, data-driven support to state agencies at no cost to the client agency. Established in July 2004, we provide customized support for a range of management issues with a focus on organizational and process improvement. Our services are tailored to your specific needs, and may be limited to a specific, short-term need, or could involve a more extended engagement.
