The Office of Inspector General (OIG) maintains a Hotline for receiving allegations of fraud, waste, abuse, and gross mismanagement in U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) programs or operations, including any organization or entity receiving DOC funds. Allegations may be reported 24 hours a day, seven days a week by DOC employees, contractors, or the public. Our Online Complaint Form is the most efficient means to file a complaint.
Please provide relevant and specific details of your complaint, including the identity of the person, company, or organization alleged to have engaged in wrongdoing; a description of the alleged impropriety; the DOC facility and program affected by the alleged misconduct; contract numbers (if available); date(s) of alleged wrongdoing; how you are aware of the alleged impropriety; the identity of potential witnesses; and the identity and location of supporting documentation.
