Description

Interagency contracting -- using another agency’s contracts or contracting services -- can provide gov’t. agencies with opportunities to streamline the procurement process and achieve savings. However, there is a lack of reliable data on its use and of clarity regarding contract mgmt. responsibilities. In 2002, the Dept. of State issued the State First policy, requiring domestic bureaus to obtain approval from Dept. of State acquisition officials before paying other agencies for contract support services. This report evaluates State’s: (1) insight into its use of interagency contracts; (2) policies on deciding when to use assisted interagency contracts; and (3) ability to ensure oversight. Includes recommendations. Charts and tables.
