Navy Research and Development Contract for Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory.

Abstract

During the last 2 years, Navy contracting and university laboratory management officials at the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command and officials at the Naval Technical Representative Office at Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (Applied Physics Lab) have made substantial improvements in the management, administration, and control of the contract for the Applied Physics Lab. We commend them for their achievements. This report is the second of two reports from our audit of the Navy research and development contract for the Applied Physics Lab. This report discusses the Navy procedures for placing and monitoring task orders and administering contracts N00039-91-C-OOOl and N00039-95-C-0002 for the Applied Physics Lab. The two contracts are valued at $3.2 billion for services over 8 years, about $400 million a year. The 36 task orders that we reviewed were valued at $177.3 million.
