The Office of Inspector General evaluated the effectiveness of NASA’s supply chain risk management efforts to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of NASA data, computer systems, and networks.

Our objective was to determine the effectiveness of the March 2017 Highway Contract Route (HCR) baseline fuel price per gallon (ppg) procedural guidance for all HCR contracts awarded or renewed between June 1 and October 1, 2017. The U.S. Postal Service uses supplier-operated HCR to transport mail and equipment between plants, post offices, or other designated points that receive or dispatch mail. In fiscal year (FY) 2017, the Postal Service spent about $597 million on fuel for HCR suppliers, which is about 16 percent of the total contract value of almost $3.7 billion for about 13,500 HCR contracts.

In this semiannual period, our audit, evaluation, and investigative activities identified approximately $57.9 million in funds TVA could put to better use, questioned costs, recoveries and savings, other monetary loss, and court-ordered forfeitures. In addition, we shared numerous opportunities for TVA to improve its programs and operations.
