Department of Family and Support Services’ Strategic Contracting Follow-up
Summary
The City of Chicago Office of Inspector General (OIG) has completed a follow-up to its August 2022 audit of the Department of Family and Support Services’ (DFSS) Strategic Contracting.
Executive Summary
The purpose of OIG’s 2022 audit was to determine whether DFSS’ contracting processes align with the Department’s Commitment to Outcomes, in which the Strategic Contracting process plays a part. In August 2023, OIG followed up on its August 2022 audit of DFSS’ Strategic Contracting.
DFSS responded by describing the corrective actions it has taken and providing supporting documentation.
OIG summarizes the original finding, the associated recommendations, and the status of DFSS’ corrective actions in response to those recommendations. OIG did not observe or test implementation of the new procedures in this follow-up; thus, it makes no determination as to their effectiveness, which would require a new audit with full testing.
