A mission, not a job.
Our Mission
Making TVA Better and Supporting the People of the Tennessee Valley
For over 35 years, the TVA OIG has performed a crucial mission to make TVA better by identifying more efficient and effective ways to do business and to prevent and detect fraud, waste, and abuse. Making TVA better is a mutual purpose we share with TVA management, employees, and the TVA Board. It is important to the 10 million people of the Tennessee Valley served by TVA that we approach our work with that purpose every day.
The Tennessee Valley Authority provides electricity for the 10 million people in Tennessee and parts of six surrounding states, as well as directly to industrial customers and federal installations. TVA also provides flood control, navigation and land management for the Tennessee River system, and assists with local economic development efforts.
