Summary |
Expectations |
---|---|
The total number of requests for assistance that OGIS logged this quarter decreased by 10 percent. Although the OGIS staff is teleworking full time as a result of COVID-19, we continued to reduce our backlog this quarter, closing the gap by 15 percent. |
We expect to continue to reduce our backlog, building on the new efficiencies we have introduced into our processes. |
