The Office of Internal Controls and Management Systems (ICMS) provides executive
and functional leadership, policy, technical expertise, and oversight for
management-related programs including integrated mission support planning, internal
controls and management assessments, and audit liaison. In fulfilling this
mission, the Office works closely with all of the organizational components at NASA
Headquarters, as well as with all of the Centers, to support the development and
implementation of effective and efficient management systems throughout the Agency;
to comply with external statues and regulations governing management, internal
controls, and related assessments; and to coordinate and oversee the Agency's
interactions with the Government Accountability Office (GAO) and the Office of
the NASA Inspector General (OIG) with respect to audit activities and
follow-up. OICMS also develops, maintains and operates automated systems to
support the development, review, and issuance of Agency directives, as well as
to track the completion of corrective actions from external audits, recommendations
from various advisory bodies, and other similar activities as required.
