    OIG recommends that the Office of Global Partnerships revise 2 Foreign Affairs Manual (FAM) 970, “Public-Private Partnerships,” to specify the conditions in which memoranda of understanding (MOU) are mandatory or optional for public-private partnerships. Given the critical role of MOUs in establishing clear partnership arrangements, responsibilities, and expectations, this revision should also clarify the specific information responsible officials must include in the action memorandum if an MOU is not prepared.
