This thesis provides a review and evaluation of the
Navy's implementation of the Federal Managers* Financial
Integrity Act. Topics considered include: internal control
in the Federal Government; overview of the internal control
evaluation system; the Department of the Navy's internal
control program including Navy implementation problems; and
Navy solutions and shortcomings to the implementation
problems. The research consisted of interviews with Naval
activities on implementation problems and solutions and a
review of relevant General Accounting Office audits and
other relevant instructions and studies.
The conclusion was reached that the Navy has made fair
progress in implementing the Act but further action is
required. Recommended actions include increasing Navy
efforts to incorporate the internal control process into the
overall management process, reducing the paperwork burden
and gaining line manager support of the process in order to
evolve the Navy's system into a more effective program.
