Pennsylvania state auditor unveils plan to revamp department

Pennsylvania Auditor General Timothy DeFoor recently announced an initiative to restructure the agency he leads and appointed department veteran Tracie Fountain to serve as “chief transformation officer.”

“It’s become abundantly clear that this department cannot continue to do things the way we’ve always done them, especially under such tight financial constraints,” DeFoor said in a news release. “We’ll perform a top-down review of our operations and look for opportunities to adopt continual process improvements wherever we can.”
