When you are aware of a complaint or request for assistance: OPEN A CASE IN CMS
Even if it is a walk-in? YES
Even if it is not an IG matter? YES
When it belongs to another command? YES
Even if the Complainant is irrational or won’t leave a complaint form? YES
Even if they should have gone elsewhere? YES
What about a note left on my windshield? YES
Third Party, Anonymous, by carrier pigeon? YES

5. First Things First CMS is in its death throes
11/12/2018
CMS is in its death throes
Numerous references are made to CMS
New application is coming soon to a computer near you
All references to CMS will apply to whatever the new case repository and action process is called
The New Checklist is coming, pending publication of the New IGMC Order and New Hotline Order
You will NOT be inspected on this until it is published
There will NOT be significant changes to WHAT is inspected
If you have an inspection between now and the publication of the new checklist, I will inspect on both but grade off of the current checklist.

6. The cg/cig relationship
11/12/2018
The CIG is the eyes, ears, voice, and conscience of the CG/Commander
An effective relationship must be based on mutual trust and confidence between the CG/Commander and CIG
The CIG should have unimpeded access to the CG/Commander (This may be via a Deputy Commander or, if no Deputy, a Chief of Staff)
The CIG must maintain independence
CIG’s authority comes from the Directing Authority (the CG/Commander)
CIG has no authority outside his/her Directing Authority’s domain
CIGs do not develop or implement policy
CIGs do not play in the JAGMAN world
