00:09.128 --> 00:11.203
- Hello, I'm Amy zorgdrager, and I'm here

00:11.203 --> 00:12.833
to tell you about an exciting initiative

00:12.833 --> 00:15.398
that is shifting DCMA's accountability practices

00:15.398 --> 00:18.980
and improving its response time when incidents are reported.

00:18.980 --> 00:21.338
^The agency has launched the DCMA Hotline,

00:21.338 --> 00:23.535
^which is designed to improve transparency

00:23.535 --> 00:25.283
^and develop a culture of caring.

00:25.283 --> 00:28.336
^You may ask, why can't I just use the DoD IG Hotline?

00:28.336 --> 00:30.821
Well you still can, but DCMA's Hotline

00:30.821 --> 00:32.813
will improve report response time.

00:32.813 --> 00:35.456
The program's goal is that each case will be reviewed

00:35.456 --> 00:37.206
within 24 hours during the work week

00:37.206 --> 00:39.615
and 72 hours over the weekend.

00:39.615 --> 00:41.326
All procurement and contract fraud

00:41.326 --> 00:43.446
should still be reported through FraudNet.

00:43.446 --> 00:45.685
The Hotline serves as an independent means

00:45.685 --> 00:47.720
for individuals to report allegations

00:47.720 --> 00:50.121
of fraud, waste, and abuse or gross mismanagement

00:50.121 --> 00:53.096
as well as other wrongdoings pertaining to programs,

00:53.096 --> 00:55.087
personnel, and operations.

00:55.087 --> 00:56.938
We serve the American taxpayer,

00:56.938 --> 00:58.937
we support the American warfighter,

00:58.937 --> 01:01.093
and we owe it to both groups to hold ourselves,

01:01.093 --> 01:03.738
our peers, and defense contractors accountable

01:03.738 --> 01:05.208
for their actions.

01:05.208 --> 01:06.929
Check out the article below

01:06.929 --> 01:09.004
to find out more about the program.

01:09.004 --> 01:11.317
We talk a lot about the importance of one team, one voice.

01:11.317 --> 01:15.484
Now every voice can make a difference, especially yours.
