Brick by Brick: Preparing for OIG Audits and Reinforcing Organizational Integrity
Recent results from OIG audits at several research organizations have given us insight as to what OIG is testing and looking for. Many organizations discuss audits and stress the importance of complying with them, but what are those auditors looking for? In this session, the presenters will provide a background on OIG audits, cover several recent case studies (good and bad!), and discuss how your organization can prepare for and comply if you are selected next!
