Government Property: DoD's Management of the Property it Furnishes to Contractors

Abstract

On March 21, 1988, we testified on Department of Defense (DOD) management of government property furnished to Defense contractors before the Senate Committee on Governmental Affairs. Our testimony focused on three areas: (1) the effectiveness of DOD's implementation of the basic government policy of relying on contractors to provide the property needed for government contracts, (2) the adequacy of management controls established to validate and approve contractor requisitions, and (3) the adequacy of government oversight over property in the possession of contractors. A copy of our testimony is included as an appendix.
