Lead or participate in Independent Operational Assessments conducted at various sites. The goal is to provide evidence to the DDO that there is reasonable assurance that internal controls are successfully embedded in operations to deter fraud, waste, abuse, and mismanagement and to determine whether the functional areas are performing in a manner compliant with guidance. In preparation for assessments, extensive research of the use of appropriate program criteria of regulations and policies is conducted (public laws; GAO; GAGAS; DFAR; DoDFMR; FMFIA; DFAS policies and procedures; ERMP maps and narratives; SOPs; internal control management requirements; best financial management practices and Lean6 process improvements while using appropriate data collection methods to obtain relevant, competent and reliable data). Upon choosing the appropriate research method, utilized CAAT on all projects to target and quantify mission risks, concerns, scale of problem transactions and monetary benefits. Root cause analysis is conducted on findings; concerns are quantified. When appropriate prepare charts and graphics to illustrate the magnitude of problems. Identified findings are prepared and briefed to senior level management in addition to providing assistance with recommended action plans to mitigate deficiencies. Additional responsibilities include providing assistance and advice to team and functional staff members concerning the program objectives related to compliance and management controls; serving as an instructor for DFAS Operations training for the MICP as well as backup System Administrator for the iControl database; and Lead on reduction of full social security numbers (SSN).

Supervisor: Ryan Busby Tel: 317.212.5537 PP/Series/Grade: GS - 510 - 09 Employment Type: Conditional (LIM Program) Department: Disbursing – Disbursing Operations Weekly Hours Worked: 40 During my second rotation within the Leaders in Motion (LIM) program I was granted an opportunity to work in Disbursing Operations. Most importantly, my assignment was to assist with integrating the new check printers within the Disbursing vault and remove the old fully depreciated equipment with the goal of losing as little production time as possible. This was imperative as Disbursing has daily print requirements. I learned a great deal about project management and attention to detail, and I learned the print process thoroughly in order to identify all the risks involved with the shutdown of a printer for an extended period of time. During the project I interacted with the Print Operators, members of ESS-Disbursing, contractors, General Services Administration (GSA) personnel, and Security personnel to ensure that downtime would be as minimal as possible, and that the new check print equipment had all operational requirements fully in place prior to the installation. I also presented the Director of Disbursing with the outline of how the vault would be set up (location of equipment and mail materials) to ensure the most efficient operation. In addition to that project which was completed in July of 2010, I was assigned several special projects such as Balanced Scorecard analysis for Disbursing metrics, ensuring corrective actions were completed following Audit findings, creating a FIFO inventory system in the warehouse of the vault, leading staff meetings, attending All Hands meetings with the Director of Disbursing, e-Biz surrogate work, and mail clerk tasks (when necessary to ensure the mission was accomplished on time). While serving in Disbursing Operations I was promoted to a GS-09 from a GS-07, July 2010.

Supervisor: Stephen Abel Tel: 317.212.7377 PP/Series/Grade: GS - 510 - 07 Employment Type: Conditional (LIM Program) Department: Security Cooperation Accounting – Air Force Accounting Weekly Hours Worked: 40I was assigned to the Air Force Accounting Branch within Security Cooperation Accounting (SCA), and was assigned to the International Narcotics Law (INL) Accounts. The INL is an account receivable for the Air Force caused by training classes provided by the Air Force to members of foreign militaries based out of narcotic war countries. When I started in this position, the outstanding balance of the INL accounts was in excess of $3 million. When I left in December, the outstanding A/R balance for INL was below $1 million. During this process I performed many self learning tasks, and performed reconciliations for errors, contact foreign embassies, and utilized the TRACS and GAFS-BQ systems to accomplish my work. I worked on the SCA ERMP data collection (narrative creation, mapping, and interviewing of SCA functions), assisted in VADR processing and participated in several job shadows for end-of –month and end-of-year work.

My individual project was to create a Microsoft Access database that would help the Secretary monitor the DISAMS training schedule which many employees were required to attend yearly. Also, I performed multiple country account reconciliations to determine accuracy and timeliness of the amounts billed to the foreign embassies. For the internship, I participated in a group project assigned by the Wounded Warrior team in Military Pay, which tasked us to develop a system for tracking all military members to ensure accurate pay. We developed a concept that would need to be investigated to identify the cost-benefit analysis, but in summation it was a Radio Frequency Identification tracking system.
