3 Background This report is prepared for the Texas Transportation Commission and for the Administration and Management of TxDOT. The report presents the results of the Toll Operations Contract Management Follow-Up engagement which was conducted as part of the Fiscal Year 2016 Audit Plan. In June 2013, TxDOT entered into a contract with a vendor to modernize the customer service center system. This modernization included converting existing toll accounts to a new system, merging accounts to simplify account maintenance for customer, implementing a new interactive voice response system, and updating other customer service capabilities to improve the customers experience. The contract included milestones, which were to be completed by the vendor to enable transition from the previous toll system. The contract further established key performance indicators which were to be used by TOD to help monitor vendor performance as established by the contract. We conducted this follow-up engagement in accordance with Generally Accepted Government Auditing Standards and in conformance with the International Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing. Those standards require that we plan and perform the engagement to obtain sufficient, appropriate evidence to provide a reasonable basis for our conclusions based on our engagement objective. Recommendations to mitigate risks identified were previously provided to management during the original engagement to assist in the formulation of the management action plans referenced in this report. The Internal Audit Division uses the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) Internal Control Integrated Framework version August
