Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GAO reviewed the Department of Defense's (DOD) contract management, focusing on the significant risks it faces as a result of defective pricing and weak controls over unallowable overhead costs and contractor payments. GAO found that: (1) although defective pricing has been reduced by 86 percent to 125.5 million in fiscal year 1993, significant financial risks remain; (2) DOD contractors' performance in correcting significant cost-estimating system deficiencies has been mixed; (3) recently DOD contractors identified and returned $75 million in apparent overpayments to the government; (4) DOD financial control weaknesses in identifying and excluding unallowable contractor overhead costs result in large, frequent, and numerous erroneous and fraudulent payments to defense contractors; (5) DOD needs to correct its long-standing contractor cost-estimating problems and address very serious weaknesses in its financial controls so that it can reduce contractor overpayments and fraudulent activities; (6) DOD contractors need to improve their procedures for identifying and excluding unallowable costs from overhead submissions; and (7) acquisition reform and streamlining legislation are positive steps toward strengthening DOD acquisition and contracting processes and properly protecting the government's and taxpayers' interests.

Download or read book Indirect Cost Management Guide Navigating the Sea of Overhead written by and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DoD management has become increasingly concerned with broad-based increases in defense contractor indirect cost rates. Many factors have contributed to these rate increases-the major one being a significant reduction in business base for most defense contractors because of the declining defense budget. As a result, DoD has undertaken expanded efforts to strengthen the monitoring of indirect costs. It has become very important for acquisition management personnel to gain a thorough understanding of the complex and sensitive subject of indirect cost management. We have found in teaching various program management classes at the Defense Systems Management College (DSMC) that the subject of indirect cost or overhead is usually referred to in very unfavorable terms, is commonly misunderstood, and is thought to be virtually uncontrollable from a government program management perspective. In addition, the large number bf indirect rates that one encounters in the defense industry significantly contributes to the confusion our students' experience. Our objective in writing this guide is to demystify what many of our students refer to as the 'sea of overhead.' We have found that there is no single published source for the general audience of acquisition personnel that provides a complete overview of indirect cost management. This guide is intended to fill that void.

Solis and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2010-08 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The DoD relies greatly on contractors to support its current operations and is likely to continue to depend on contractors in support of future operations. As of Dec. 2009, DoD estimated that over 207,000 contractor personnel were supporting operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. DoD expects to increase the number of contractors as more troops deploy to Afghanistan. This testimony addresses: (1) the challenges DoD faces when trying to provide management and oversight of contractors in Iraq and Afghanistan; and (2) the extent to which DoD has made progress in institutionalizing a department-wide approach to managing and overseeing operational contract support.
