Recommendation Contents
OIG recommends that the Bureau of Diplomatic Security (DS), in coordination with the Bureau of Overseas Buildings Operations (OBO), better define the roles and responsibilities of each bureau to ensure that both bureaus are fully involved in the process to prioritize and fund physical security needs at posts. As part of developing these roles and responsibilities, a process should be established to have a neutral party review and make decisions when disagreements arise about funding decisions between OBO and DS.
