Dual Management of Commercially Available Items - Battery, Food Service, and Photographic Products

Abstract : The audit objectives were to determine the extent of products available through non-Defense Federal organizations for which DoD also operates central procurement programs and to evaluate whether the DoD programs are providing services without added benefit to DoD. The specific objective of this report was to determine the extent of DLA managed items in FSCs for battery, food service, and photographic products that were procured also by the General Services Administration (GSA). Subsequent reports will determine the extent of additional commodities available through non-Defense Federal organizations for which DoD also operates centralized procurement programs. We also reviewed the adequacy of the management control program applicable to the stated objectives.
