NASA Procurement: Improving the Management of Delegated Contract Functions

Report Type Reports and Testimonies
Report Date March 27, 1992
Report No. NSIAD-92-75
Subject
Summary:

During fiscal years 1989-91, NASA spent more than $10 billion annually on work done by contractors, much of which was supervised by other government agencies--primarily the Defense Department (DOD). GAO found widespread and significant deficiencies in NASA's management of delegated contracts. For example, planning conferences between NASA and DOD were not held as required. In addition, delegation letters from NASA to DOD were often either late or unclear about the functions being delegated. NASA did not obtain most acceptance letters in a timely manner, and some were not obtained at all. Some NASA contracting officers were unaware that their contracts had been delegated to DOD or did not know why functions had been delegated. Further, NASA could not verify the amounts or services that DOD was billing for. While NASA has changed its regulations and procedures to resolve these deficiencies, GAO believes that additional steps are needed to ensure that these problems are adequately corrected.
