Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Subcontractors depend on cash flow generated by progress or other periodic payments from prime contractors to meet payrolls and pay other bills. A long-standing congressional concern is whether federal prime contractors are paying subcontractors in a timely manner. Payments to subcontractors sometimes constitutes well over 50 percent of the prime contract costs. This report responds to section 806 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Years 1992 and 1993, which requires GAO to (1) identify existing statuatory and regulatory provisions that help provide timely payments to subcontractors working on federal contracts and (2) evaluate the feasibility and desirability of additional proposed payment protections for subcontractors that are enumerated in the legislation.

This book was released on 2017-09-14 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Under time-and-materials contracts, payments to contractors are made based on the number of labor hours billed at hourly rates and, if applicable, other direct costs. Because of the risk they pose to the government, their use is supposed to be limited to cases where no other contract type is suitable. GAO was asked to identify trends in the Department of Defense's (DOD) obligations under time-and-materials contracts; analyze what DOD is buying under these contracts; assess why DOD is using them and whether actions are being taken to ensure that they are used only when no other contract type is suitable; evaluate DOD's monitoring of contractor performance; and determine the differences between the labor rates prime contractors bill DOD and the rates in their subcontracts. GAO reviewed 82 time-and-materials contracts, agreements, and orders and examined prime contract and subcontract labor rates on 12 additional contracts or agreements.

Book excerpt: Congress enacted laws, such as the Miller Act (United States Code, title 40, section 270) and the Prompt Payment Act (United States Code, title 31, sections 3903 and 3905), to ensure that construction contractors pay subcontractors in a timely manner. In FYs 1990 through 1992, DoD awarded construction contracts totaling about $19 billion.

Effective September 8, 1992, provisions of the Act dealing with prompt payments for construction contractors were incorporated into the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement subpart 228.1, "Bonds," and section 232.970, "Payment of Subcontractors."

This book was released on 2007 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Under time-and-materials contracts, payments to contractors are made based on the number of labor hours billed at hourly rates and, if applicable, other direct costs. Because of the risk they pose to the government, their use is supposed to be limited to cases where no other contract type is suitable. GAO was asked to identify trends in the Department of Defense's (DoD) obligations under time-and-materials contracts; analyze what DoD is buying under these contracts; assess why DoD is using them and whether actions are being taken to ensure that they are used only when no other contract type is suitable; evaluate DoD's monitoring of contractor performance; and determine the differences between the labor rates prime contractors bill DoD and the rates in their subcontracts. GAO reviewed 82 time-and-materials contracts, agreements, and orders and examined prime contract and subcontract labor rates on 12 additional contracts or agreements. GAO is recommending that DoD require more diligence in justifying the use of certain types of time-and-materials contracts, analyze the use of time-and-materials on indefinite-quantity contracts to ensure that it does not become the default contract type, and require monitoring plans to reflect the risks inherent in this contract type. In written comments on a draft of this report, DoD concurred with the recommendations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One-third of the DoD FY 2006 spending on goods and services was for subcontracts. Concerns have been raised among DoD auditors and Congress about the potential for excessive pass-through charges by contractors that add little or no value when work is subcontracted. To better understand this risk, this report assesses the extent to which DoD may be vulnerable to these charges, and examines: (1) DoD¿s approach to assessing the risk of excessive pass-through charges when work is subcontracted; (2) the strategies that selected private sector companies use to minimize risks of excessive pass-through charges when purchasing goods and services; and (3) DoD¿s interim rule to prevent excessive pass-through charges.
