Administration of the Contract Closeout Process at the Defense Contract Management District Mid Atlantic

Abstract

The Defense Contract Management District Mid Atlantic (DCMDM) is one of five Defense Contract Management Districts (formerly nine Defense Contract Administration Services Regions) within the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) that provide contract administration services to DoD and other departments and agencies of the Federal Government. As of May 31, 1989, DCMDM was administering 85,010 contracts with unliquidated obligations of $13.8 billion. DCMDM uses an automated system, "Mechanization of Contract Administration Services," (MOCAS) to maintain control over the administration of contracts, including the contract closeout process. The system is designed to allow DCMDM employees to enter various types of basic contract data and actions into the data base for every contract the region administers. Data items and actions include contract numbers, obligation amounts, scheduled delivery dates, contract administration services required by the contract, modifications and changes to the basic contract, actual delivery quantities and dates, and payments. This information permits administrative contracting officers (ACO's) to monitor the status of the contracts, including the status of funds, deliveries, and other administrative actions.
