摘要

Contractor business systems and internal controls are the first line of defense against waste, fraud, and abuse. Weak control systems-such as those for estimating, billing, purchasing, labor, and compensation, among other activities-increase the risk of unallowable and unreasonable costs on government contracts, especially in contingency environments like Iraq and Afghanistan. The potential increased cost attributable to weak systems is exacerbated by the government's increased reliance on service-support contractors in the high-risk environment of contingency contracting and on an oversight process that has proven ineffective for the task. On August 11, 2009, the Commission on Wartime Contracting in Iraq and Afghanistan conducted a hearing to obtain testimony from government officials and contractors on the adequacy of contractor business systems. The Commission learned that unreliable data from business systems produced billions of dollars in contingency-contract costs that government auditors often could not verify. The government's ability to detect contract cost errors and material misstatements is seriously impeded by contractors' inadequate internal controls over their business systems. Further, the two primary government agencies involved, the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) and the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA), are not effectively working together to protect government interests. The Commission found five systemic problems with current oversight of contractor business systems and makes five recommendations to correct them.
