Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This testimony discusses the management challenges that continue to face the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). These challenges include (1) computer security, (2) financial management, (3) organizational modernization and performance management, and (4) business systems modernization management. IRS must make progress in all four areas to improve the agency's efficiency and to significantly improve service to taxpayers. IRS has taken important steps in all of these areas, but significant obstacles remain. In the area of computer security, IRS corrected many previously reported weaknesses and is launching a computer security management program that should help it manage its risks in this area. However, serious weaknesses persist that could impair IRS' ability to perform vital functions. In financial management, IRS was able to prepare financial statements this year that received an unqualified opinion. However, this achievement came through the use of substantial, costly, and time-consuming processes to work around IRS' system deficiencies. IRS has reorganized into four taxpayer-focused divisions and has developed a performance management approach consistent with management principles contained in the IRS Restructuring and Reform Act and the Government Performance and Results Act. However, much work remains to be done to complete the foundation and to design and implement business practice changes that will noticeably improve service to taxpayers and IRS' administration of the tax system. Finally, in terms of business systems modernization, IRS has made important progress in developing and implementing fundamental modernization management controls, but considerable work remains.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) continued to make progress in addressing information security control weaknesses and improving its internal control over financial reporting; however, weaknesses remain that could affect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of financial and sensitive taxpayer data. During fiscal year 2013, IRS management devoted attention and resources to addressing information security controls, and resolved a number of the information security control deficiencies that were previously reported by GAO. This book discusses weaknesses that place financial and taxpayer data at risk. It also examines the growing imbalance between the demand for services and resources; the IRS ability to improve examinations by adopting certain research program practices; and long-term strategy needed to improve interactive services.
