Procurement Activities and the Use of Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation Funds by the U.S. Special Operations Command.

Abstract

The audit was performed to follow up on issues raised in an Inspector General, DoD, inspection of the U.S. Special Operations Command (the Command). The report discusses the use of Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation funds; the adequacy of procurement oversight; and the contracting out of inherently governmental functions by the Command. The Command plans for and conducts special operations, psychological operations, and civil affairs missions. Since October 1991, the Command has used five main contracts, valued at a total of about $ 15 1 million, to obtain contracted advisory and assistance services (Appendix A).
