It's #WorldClassWednesday! The Office of the Naval Inspector General (NAVINSGEN) Inspections, Evaluations and Intel Oversight Division conducts command inspections and area assessments across the major fleet concentration areas to identify and help correct readiness and quality of life issues. To accomplish these directives, the Naval Inspector General (NAVIG) enlists subject matter experts (SME) from other staffs and commands to conduct its inspections and investigations. Partnering with Enterprise SMEs has been proven to be an invaluable resource and an important aspect of maintaining fleet readiness. Read more about some of our recurring SMEs Craig Ozaki, Michael Gramolini, and Michael Hill: https://lnkd.in/egTnN8GE
