Department Of Justice Making Efforts

To Improve Litigative Management

Information Systems



The Department of Justice long has had diffi-
culty in responding to the informational re-
quests and needs of congressional committees
and the Office of Management and Budget in
the litigation area. Past GAO audits have been
hampered because information was not avail-
able to measure the scope, progress, and re-
sults of litigation activities.

Recognizing its shortcomings, the Department
of Justice is planning, or has recently imple-
mented, information systems that will provide
summary, data on the utilization of resources
and the many cases handled. While it is too
early to assess the success of these efforts,
Justice is moving in the right direction.

The report was requested by the Chairman,
Subcommittee on Government Information
and Individual Rights, House Committee on
Government Operations.
