DOD Hotline Allegation of Irregularities in DOD Contractual Arrangements with the Department of Energy
Abstract
The Department of Energy performs work for other organizations, such as the Department of Defense, through its Work for Others Program. The Economy Act of 1932 (U.S.C., Title 31, Section 1535) is the principal authority for the Work for Others Program. The objective of this Program is to permit other organizations to take advantage of the special research capabilities and resources of the Department of Energy's national laboratories. This outside work is performed primarily by the management and operating contractors who operate the Department of Energy's national laboratories and weapon production facilities and by their subcontractors. The services and supplies that the Department of Energy has provided through its Work for Others Program have grown rapidly from about $725 million in FY 1980 to about $2.6 billion in FY 1988. We estimate that approximately 80 percent of this work has been performed for DoD activities.
