Financial Management: Contracts Classified as Unreconcilable by the Defense Finance and Accounting Service Columbus (Contract No. F30602-81-C-0153)

Abstract

Air Force contract F30602-81-C-0153 was awarded to the Harris Corporation on April 22, 1981, to design and provide Vinson Autovon Secure Voice Terminals (secure communication devices) for use throughout DoD. Rome Air Development Center at Griffis Air Force Base, New York, awarded the contract and initially obligated 89,675,382. According to records in the Mechanization of Contract Administration Services (MOCAS) system, the total contract value and the amount obligated over the life of the contract was 840,766,838. The Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) office in Orlando, Florida, administered the contract until October 7, 1985, when the responsibility for contract administration was transferred to the DCMA office in Palm Bay, Florida. At the time of the audit, the contract had a negative unliquidated obligation (NULO) balance of 8606,898 in the MOCAS system. Because a NULO existed in MOCAS, the contract could not be closed until a full reconciliation was performed.
