The fed. gov¿t., incl. the DoD, is relying on contractors to carry out many of its missions. Governmentwide spending on contractor services has more than doubled in the last 10 years. DoD has used contractors extensively to support troops deployed abroad; there are about 196,000 contractors in Iraq and Afghanistan. While contractors can play an important role in helping agencies accomplish their missions, there have been problems regarding the appropriate role and mgmt. of contractors, particularly at DoD. This testimony highlights the challenges DoD has had in managing its increased reliance on contractors who support deployed troops and who provide logistics support for weapons. Includes recommendations.
DoD officials who serve in senior and acquisition positions and then leave for jobs with defense contractors are subject to the restrictions of post-gov¿t. employment laws, in order to protect against conflicts of interest. Congress required a report on employment of such officials by contractors who received more than $500 million in DoD¿s 2005 contract awards. In response, this report: (1) provides information on how many former DoD employees worked for contractors in 2006 and estimates how many worked on contracts that were related to their former agencies or to their direct responsibilities; and (2) identifies the practices used to monitor restrictions and information challenges in monitoring post-DoD employment. Includes recommendations.
