Acquisition: Purchase Card Use and Contracting Actions at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Louisville District
Abstract
This audit is in response to a Defense Hotline referral regarding irregularities in purchase card use and contracting actions at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Louisville District. The Hotline allegations related to purchase card irregularities were associated with transactions reviewed from March through June 2002 as part of an Army Regulation 15-6, "Procedure for Investigating Officers and Boards of Officers," investigation. We reviewed transactions associated with the investigation to determine whether purchase card-related allegations were substantiated. The District Contracting Division had overall responsibility of the purchase card program for 42 field offices across 5 states. In FY 2003, the District was composed of 166 cardholders and 95 approving officials, including alternate approving officials,' responsible for purchase card accounts. District cardholders made 15,228 purchase card transactions, valued at 85.9 million. During this review, we looked at 597 FY 2003 transactions for 12 purchase cardholder accounts, valued at $993,000.
