Department of Defense (DoD) contractors are reminded that DFARS (DoD FAR Supplement) 203.1004 requires that the DoD-IG (Inspector General) Hotline Poster be posted in a prominent location if awarded a contract in excess of $5.5 million. Non-DoD contractors have a similar requirement found in FAR 3.1004. Whether contractors have a threshold contract or not, we believe its a good idea for all contractors to display hotline posters. It is integral to good internal controls.
