Description
When the Dept. of Homeland Security (DHS) was created, it was granted “other transaction” authority -- a special authority used to meet mission needs.

This report determines the extent to which nontraditional contractors have been involved in DHS’s other transactions, and assesses DHS’s mgmt. of the acquisition process when using this authority to identify additional safeguards. Includes recommendations. Illus.
