The Independent Oversight Program (IOP Sample Clauses

The Independent Oversight Program (IOP. The IOP includes program reviews that are triggered by the joint risk assessment and/or by the performance indicators/measures that suggest a need for improvement, or as identified by general recurring reviews of programs and projects. In general, FHWA will use the IOP process to assess the capability and capacity of PennDOT in those areas where PennDOT has assumed FHWA’s responsibilities. The IOP includes formal procedures for conducting reviews, developing reports, and tracking resolution of findings and recommendations. The reviews are conducted to: • Assess compliance with Federal requirements. • Identify opportunities for greater efficiencies and improvements to the program. • Identify exemplary best practices. • Identify areas that need attention and make recommendations for improvement. The number of reviews and the review topics are jointly established annually by FHWA and PennDOT and are based on the results and recommendations of the program assessment which includes a risk assessment analysis. Reviews may be initiated by both FHWA and PennDOT and are designed to include a multidisciplinary team from both agencies. Based on the outcome of the IOP, an action plan may be required to address the recommendations or corrective actions identified in the reviews. The action plan will be jointly monitored until the recommendations and corrective actions have been satisfactorily addressed. At the beginning of each FHWA performance year, FHWA will develop its schedule of reviews for the forthcoming year in coordination with PennDOT.
