Johnson Space Center Procurement: Controls Over Payments to Contractors Should Be Strengthened

Report Type Reports and Testimonies
Report Date Oct. 23, 1992
Report No. IMTEC-93-2
Subject
Summary:

GAO has identified NASA's contract management practices as one of 16 government areas highly vulnerable to waste, fraud, and abuse. The Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas, has various internal controls over the management of computer contracts, grants, and purchase orders. Those used for paying contractors, however, put the Center at risk. Specifically, contracting officers and technical representatives at the Center do not link the receipt of products and services actually received against the cost vouchers that contractors submit for payment. Although the Center relies on a series of internal controls to ensure that contractors deliver high-quality goods and services, none of these mechanisms is a substitute for periodic linking of contractors' cost vouchers with products actually received. As a result, it is possible that the Center may be billed--and end up paying--for goods and services never received.
