Inadequate Contract Oversight of Military Construction Projects in Afghanistan Resulted in Increased Hazards to Life and Safety of Coalition Forces

Abstract

Our objective was to determine whether the Air Force Center for Engineering and the Environment1 (AFCEE) provided effective oversight of construction projects in Afghanistan. This is one in a series of audits on contract management and oversight of military construction (MILCON) projects in Afghanistan. DoD IG Technical Assessment Directorate (TAD) engineers assisted with the audit and assessed the electrical and fire protection standards of the designated facilities at Camps Bastion/Leatherneck for compliance with applicable requirements and specifications. See the appendix for the scope and methodology and prior coverage related to MILCON in Afghanistan.
