Report Description:
This report details the results of our review of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA’s) sole-source contract award to Industrial Economics, Incorporated. On April 20, 2010, an explosion on the British Petroleum (BP) Deepwater Horizon oil well drilling platform released approximately 4.9 million barrels (210 million gallons) of oil into the Gulf of Mexico. Our objective was to determine whether NOAA properly documented the justification of awarding a September 2011 sole-source contract with Industrial Economics, Incorporated.
