Report Description
Our objective was to determine whether NOAA established and administered BPAs in accordance with laws, regulations, and agency guidance. We reviewed a total of 30 BPAs— 17 GSA Schedule BPAs and 13 NOAA-established BPAs. Overall, we found that NOAA did not properly establish or administer all 30 BPAs because they did not comply with at least one or more of the key FAR and NOAA requirements.
