Inspection of Concerns Relating to the Management of the Savannah River Operations Office LEARN/POWER Information System

The Office of Inspector General (OIG), U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), received information that the Savannah River Operations Office (Savannah River) continued to develop, implement, and market a human resource information system, despite the establishment of a Departmental information system entitled the “Corporate Human Resource Information System” (CHRIS). We recently sent you our audit report of the Department’s “Corporate and Stand Alone Information Systems Development” (DOE/IG-0485). In that audit, we concluded that the Department has spent at least $38 million developing duplicative information systems.
