Subject
Summary:

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has provided its contractors with billions of dollars worth of government property for them to use in research and development, production, and service contracts. The value of government property, especially general purpose equipment, provided to contractors has soared in recent years, despite government policies designed to minimize this practice. This report determines (1) NASA's compliance with federal regulations intended to minimize the amount of government-owned, contractor-held general purpose equipment; (2) the effectiveness of government and contractor controls over equipment; and (3) the adequacy of NASA's reporting of this equipment.
