Foreword, David H. Rosenbloom; Preface; Introduction; The study question and method; The inspector general concept; The Office of Inspector General of DHS and its work context; Data analysis of the activities of federal OIGs and DHS OIGs; Final review of findings and elements to consider when evaluating IGs' effectiveness.
The Inspector General (IG)'s mission is to expose fraud, waste and abuse as well as promoting efficiency in federal agencies. Each year billions of dollars are returned to the Federal government or are better spent based on recommendations from IGs reports. IG investigations have also contributed to the prosecution of thousands of wrongdoers including contractors and public employees. With scarce literature on Inspectors General (IGs), Apaza addresses this by looking at the Inspector General for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) which has proven to be of significant benefit to the US government.
