Defense Hotline Allegations Concerning Contract Audit Recommendations,

Abstract

We performed this evaluation as a result of a Defense Hotline complaint. Allegedly, the contract administration staff at the Supervisor of Shipbuilding, Conversion, and Repair (SUPSHIP) facility at Newport News, Virginia, did not support Defense Contract Audit Agency audit recommendations and delayed the resolution of related audit issues, which resulted in significant harm to the Government's interests. The Hotline complaint alleged that 14 issues with cost impacts to the Government of $94.6 million (including interest of $ 16.1 million) were handled improperly by the SUPSHIP. Also, Defense Contract Audit Agency management officials allegedly declined to act when these conditions were brought to their attention.
