Government Accountability Office, DHS Intelligence Analysis: Additional Actions Needed to Address Analytic Priorities and Workforce Challenges (GAO-14-397) (June 4, 2014) (full-text).
Overview[]
DHS plays a vital role in securing the nation, and its intelligence analysis capabilities are a key part of this effort. Within the DHS, the Office of Intelligence and Analysis (I&A), has a lead role for intelligence analysis, but other operational components also perform their own analysis activities. GAO was asked to review the management of departmental analysis efforts.
This report addresses the extent to which (1) DHS intelligence analysis activities are integrated to support departmental intelligence priorities, (2) I&A customers find analytic products and services useful, and (3) I&A has addressed challenges in maintaining a skilled analytic workforce.
