Defense Stockpile: Defense Logistics Agency Contract Award for Cobalt

Abstract

As you requested, we reviewed the Defense Logistics Agency's (DLA) 1989 contract awarded to Sherritt Gordon Limited, a Canadian company, to upgrade some of the U.S government's strategic stockpile of cobalt. You raised concerns regarding DLA's decision to award this contract to the highest bidder. Specifically, you asked us to examine the objections that had been raised by another firm regarding DLA's cobalt contract award to Sherritt and the process DLA proposes to use to upgrade the U.S. strategic cobalt stockpile.
