Mid-MO AGA: National Webinar Series -- Internal Controls December 4, 2024
Webinar: Internal Controls
Enabling Technology Responsibly within Financial Programs
December 4 | 1:00–2:50 PM ET | 2 CPEs | FOS: AUDG
As agencies develop and implement new technologies they must understand how to strike a balance between protecting the agency with proper governance and internal control while driving technological innovation to deliver process improvements and efficiencies. This session will cover how agencies must involve the right stakeholders throughout the process, including subject matter experts and champions of innovation, while also promoting innovation across multiple functions of the organization. These key stakeholders include internal controls, systems security, and privacy experts, all areas that are intertwined. Mature agencies such as DHS have lessons learned from implementation of technology associated governance, and can provide best practices on how it implemented technology to enable efficiency, concurrent to reinforcing controls so that it did not create more risk in the environment.
Learning Objectives
- Understanding how agencies may promote governance and internal control while development and implementing new technologies.
- Understanding why governance is necessary as agencies adopt new technologies.
- Understanding what considerations need to be made for developing and implementing governance and who should be involved.
- Understand examples of technology that may be enabled to promote efficiency within financial programs.
Key Takeaways
- Agencies must strike a balance between protecting the agency with proper internal control and governance while driving technological innovation to deliver process improvement.
- Involving the right stakeholders is key for the successful development and implementation of governance around new tools and technologies.
