Overview
The Division of Internal Evaluation and Assessment (DIEA) helps Indian Affairs organizations set up and follow strong internal controls for all their programs and operations. DIEA gives advice and checks to make sure rules are followed, based on standards from the Department of the Interior and other government agencies.
DIEA helps Indian Affairs organizations:
- Create and carry out yearly plans to review their internal controls.
- Review and assess how well internal controls are working.
- Find and fix problems in their programs or daily work.
- Write the Indian Affairs Annual Assurance Statement for Internal Control for the Secretary of the Interior.
DIEA also checks that Tribal contractors and grantees follow audit rules, such as the Single Audit Act and 2 CFR 200 (Grants and Agreements). DIEA investigates issues inside Indian Affairs and reviews programs to make sure:
- Programs meet their goals.
- Resources are used properly and support the agency’s mission.
- Resources are safe from waste, fraud, or poor management.
- The agency follows all laws, rules, and policies.
DIEA is the main contact for audits affecting Indian Affairs. They work with offices like the Department of the Interior, Inspector Generals, and other government audit teams, especially on Tribal audit matters.
