Department of Defense Task Force for Business and Stability Operations' International Oil and Gas Sector Advisory Services Contract: Audit of Costs Incurred by Curtis, Mallet-Prevost, Colt & Mosle
At the request of the Tennessee Valley Authority's (TVA) Supply Chain, we examined the cost proposal submitted by a company for civil projects and coal combustion residual program management work at TVA's steam electric power plants. Our examination objective was to determine if the company's cost proposal was fairly stated for a planned $100 million contract.In our opinion, the company's cost proposal was overstated. Specifically, we found the company's proposed costs for a Cumberland Fossil Plant project and proposed unit rates for a Bull Run Fossil Plant project included overstated (1) equipment costs, (2) material costs, (3) workers' compensation insurance costs, and (4) travel costs.We estimated TVA could avoid about $3.75 million on the planned $100 million contract by negotiating appropriate reductions to (1) equipment, materials, workers' compensation, and travel costs in the Cumberland Fossil Plant proposal and (2) unit rates in the Bull Run Fossil Plant proposal.(Summary Only)

We found that EEOC generally had sound information security controls for its Information Security Program and has implemented security controls in all seven DHS Inspector General (IG) FISMA Reporting Metrics. Based on our audit work, we concluded that the EEOC’s Information Security Program is generally compliant with the FISMA legislation and applicable Office of Management and Budget (OMB) guidance and the security controls tested demonstrated operating effectiveness.
