Policy and Procedure Recommendations (PPR) Portal

The New York City Department of Investigation’s Policy and Procedure Recommendations (PPR) Portal provides the public with a greater understanding of the recommendations DOI issues to City agencies and entities. PPRs are formal written recommendations to City agencies that correct policy, procedural and operational vulnerabilities identified through DOI investigations. These PPRs are part of DOI’s distinct approach to attacking corruption: through prevention, education, arrests, public reports, and reforms that tighten internal controls and prevent fraud and corruption from re-occurring. PPRs help improve the efficiency and effectiveness of City government, defend the City from fraudulent activity, and protect City workers and the public from conditions that could affect health and safety. This dataset pulls the most recent information from DOIs PPR portal, available on their website.

Within the next six months, DHS should create a three-year plan to negotiate and execute contracts with all providers and owners who provide shelter housing to NYC’s homeless family population. a. The plan should set a series of aggressive yet reasonable timetables (i.e., Tier II sites currently without contract will have executed contracts by June 2015; the hotels used as shelters by DHS will be contracted under a timeframe where there is a set increase in the number or percentage of hotels contracted over the course of three to five years; the cluster sites should get a separate schedule). b. The plan should also identify persons responsible, and there must be a plan for the DHS Commissioner and DOI to review progress regularly.
