Audit on Global coordination of Benefits for BlueCross and BlueShield Plans Contract Year 2007
We reviewed $9.98 million in costs billed to TVA by a contractor for right-of-way clearing and land restoration services for transmission line projects. In summary, we found the contractor overbilled TVA $34,678 including: (1) $28,925 in unallowable rental costs, and (2) $5,753 due to miscellaneous invoice errors. Additionally, we could not determine if price changes had been accurately accounted for under the contract because the contract's provisions relating to price changes were unclear. We recommended TVA recover $34,678 in overbilled costs and revise the price change clause in the contract to clarify when and how price changes should occur.
