Where To Report Waste Fraud, Abuse, Or Retaliation
Recommendation Details
Text of Recommendation
We recommend the FEMA Administrator issue guidance and ensure a standardized process for collecting and maintaining documentation to confirm delivery and receipt of FEMA-owned commodities, supplies, and equipment, as well as those sourced by FEMA from partners across the Federal Government, non-governmental organizations, and the private sector to fulfill state, local, tribal, and territorial requests. At a minimum, the guidance and standardized process should: a. identify the required types of documentation to confirm delivery and receipt such as signed bills of lading, packing slips, and other forms; b. include controls to ensure the shipment documentation includes item descriptions and the specific quantity of items delivered and received; c. clarify the procedures for executing and documenting the delivery of commodities, supplies, and equipment to locations where no FEMA personnel are present to receive shipments; and d. establish appropriate repositories for delivery and receipt documentation.
