Government Property in the Possession of Contractors.

Abstract

In response to audits by the Inspector General, DoD, and the General Accounting Office and congressional concerns related to the DoD management of Government property in the possession of contractors, the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition issued guidance in l986 to reduce the level of Government property. The Under Secretary directed DoD departments and agencies to implement 30 initiatives that would dispose of excess Government property, correct unauthorized access into the DoD supply system, and stop the continuing increase in new property going to contractors. This audit was made at the request of the Off ice of the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Production and Logistics) to evaluate accomplishment of the 1986 property initiatives. The reported value of Government property in the possession of Defense contractors totaled $72.2 billion (acquisition cost) as of September 30, 1990.
