^(calming music)

00:00:09,128 --> 00:00:11,203
- Hello, I'm Amy zorgdrager, and I'm here

3
00:00:11,203 --> 00:00:12,833
to tell you about an exciting initiative

4
00:00:12,833 --> 00:00:15,398
that is shifting DCMA's accountability practices

5
00:00:15,398 --> 00:00:18,980
and improving its response time when incidents are reported.

6
00:00:18,980 --> 00:00:21,338
^The agency has launched the DCMA Hotline,

7
00:00:21,338 --> 00:00:23,535
^which is designed to improve transparency

8
00:00:23,535 --> 00:00:25,283
^and develop a culture of caring.

9
00:00:25,283 --> 00:00:28,336
^You may ask, why can't I just use the DoD IG Hotline?

10
00:00:28,336 --> 00:00:30,821
Well you still can, but DCMA's Hotline

11
00:00:30,821 --> 00:00:32,813
will improve report response time.

12
00:00:32,813 --> 00:00:35,456
The program's goal is that each case will be reviewed

13
00:00:35,456 --> 00:00:37,206
within 24 hours during the work week

14
00:00:37,206 --> 00:00:39,615
and 72 hours over the weekend.

15
00:00:39,615 --> 00:00:41,326
All procurement and contract fraud

16
00:00:41,326 --> 00:00:43,446
should still be reported through FraudNet.

17
00:00:43,446 --> 00:00:45,685
The Hotline serves as an independent means

18
00:00:45,685 --> 00:00:47,720
for individuals to report allegations

19
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:50,121
of fraud, waste, and abuse or gross mismanagement

20
00:00:50,121 --> 00:00:53,096
as well as other wrongdoings pertaining to programs,

21
00:00:53,096 --> 00:00:55,087
personnel, and operations.

22
00:00:55,087 --> 00:00:56,938
We serve the American taxpayer,

23
00:00:56,938 --> 00:00:58,937
we support the American warfighter,

24
00:00:58,937 --> 00:01:01,093
and we owe it to both groups to hold ourselves,

25
00:01:01,093 --> 00:01:03,738
our peers, and defense contractors accountable

26
00:01:03,738 --> 00:01:05,208
for their actions.

27
00:01:05,208 --> 00:01:06,929
Check out the article below

28
00:01:06,929 --> 00:01:09,004
to find out more about the program.

29
00:01:09,004 --> 00:01:11,317
We talk a lot about the importance of one team, one voice.

30
00:01:11,317 --> 00:01:15,484
Now every voice can make a difference, especially yours.
