Summary:

Each year, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) buys supplies and services through contracts. HUD's downsizing plans and allegations of contracting abuses, however, have raised concerns about the agency's ability to effectively manage its contracting workload. This testimony discusses (1) the extent of HUD's reliance on contractors to carry out the agency's responsibilities; (2) the weaknesses in HUD's current contracting practices, particularly with respect of oversight of property management contractors; and (3) HUD's actions to address its contracting weaknesses.
