Objective
We performed this audit to determine
whether the Special Operations Forces
Support Activity (SOFSA) was effectively
managing the Contractor Logistics Support
Services (CLSS) contract. Specifically, we
determined whether the contractor was
performing in accordance with contract
terms and conditions and whether
SOFSA was adequately monitoring the
contractor’s performance.
Finding
SOFSA managed the nonstatistically selected
14 CLSS contract task orders reviewed,
valued at $267 million, in accordance
with the Federal Acquisition Regulation
and DoD guidance. Specifically, SOFSA
performed adequate oversight to ensure
contractor performance met contract
requirements. SOFSA contracting officials:
- designated contracting officer’s representatives in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation;
- ensured contracting officer’s representatives complied with training requirements in accordance with DoD guidance;
- aligned performance-monitoring activities detailed in the quality assurance surveillance plans with the performance work statement requirements;
- ensured contractor performance met performance work statement requirements through quality assurance reviews performed by the Enterprise Management Division, contracting officers; Defense Contract Management Agency, contracting officer’s representatives; and technical representatives; and
- implemented recommendations to correct oversight deficiencies identified during a previous audit performed by the Department of Defense, Office of the Inspector General.
As a result of contracting officials’ oversight, SOFSA
issued seven administrative action reports and recovered
$7.7 million from March 2013 through February 2015 on
the 14 task orders reviewed and a total of $179 million
on the entire contract. Therefore, we are not making
recommendations in this report.
