Regulating energy development; conserving land and water resources; protecting wildlife; conducting scientific research; preserving national parks, monuments, and heritage areas; and addressing American Indian concerns. These diverse activities and more are the responsibility of the U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI). The mission of the Office of Inspector General (OIG) is to provide independent oversight and promote excellence, integrity, and accountability within the programs, operations, and management of the U.S. Department of the Interior. We are a highly motivated organization of about 265 employees conducting independent oversight and responding in the best interest of American taxpayers to ensure that DOI earns the public`s trust. We are alert to waste, fraud, and mismanagement, whether expressed as administrative waste or criminal activity, and we use a range of audit and investigative tools to ensure that the Secretary of the Interior, Congress, and the public are informed when changes to DOI programs become necessary to achieve this goal.
The Office of General Counsel seeks to be one of the nation`s preeminent government legal offices by utilizing best practices in organization, hiring, training, supervision, use of technology and outside counsel management and by effective co-operation with the Office of Attorney General in its provision of legal services to the Commonwealth.

These services are provided to the citizens by more than 6,500 employees working in 100 different departments and elected offices.
Kansas Office of Information Technology Services was created under Governor Sam Brownback. Previously, OITS was known as the Division of Information Systems and Communication (DISC) and was a division of the Kansas Department of Administration. OITS is an independent agency, but the two agencies still maintain close operational relationships in several areas because the transition was never completed.
