Agency Response: Dated July 30, 2024: Agree. The Office of Administration will develop and implement a method to prioritize NRC closeout, including a) Updating agency guidance to describe current practices for contract closeout and deobligation; b) Reinforcing contract closeout policy to the CORs and acquisition personnel through formal communications and refresher training on the closeout process; and, c) Creating a procedure to track closeout requisitions, from submission to completion, that results in the timely completion of closeouts by the AMD. The tracking information should include, among other things, contract type, date the CO received evidence of physical completion, funding allocation, and, where the expired contract is in the contract management process. Target Completion Date: February 1, 2025 OIG Analysis: The OIG will close this recommendation after reviewing and confirming the evidence provided by the NRC’s management of the developed and implemented method to prioritize NRC closeout. This recommendation remains open and resolved.
