Incident Disclosure Management

Incident & Disclosure Management

Proper Disclosure of Non-Compliance

Companies in the defense industry routinely focus on being compliant with International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and avoiding fines with the Department of State (DOS). With continuous export control reforms, companies in all industries, including those in defense, are equally concerned with products regulated by the Department of Commerce (DOC). Over a recent six year period, it has been observed that fines levied by DOC exceeded that by DOS by a great measure. Despite properly obtaining export and import authorizations, errors do occur.

The ability to self-disclose identified errors, and demonstrate corrective actions, will help substantially mitigate penalties and fines. OCR’s Incident and Disclosure Management™ enables corporations to implement a uniform and consistent corporate wide policy, and internal review process, to evaluate all incident reports, audit findings, identify corrective actions, and when necessary prepare voluntary disclosures for the government.
