The Administrative Services Bureau (ASB) is the Department’s watch dog of financial activity. It acts as monitor and enforcer of state, federal and departmental laws, policies and regulations pertaining to financial activity, as well as technical support to all areas of ADC by establishing proper financial procedures. The ASB provides a variety of mandatory, periodic and ad hoc financial and performance measure reports to federal agencies, Governor’s office, State legislature, and to all levels of management at ADC. The ASB works closely with the Department of Administration’s General Accounting Office, the State Procurement Office and the Surplus Property Management Office.
