.December 28, 2018 MEMORANDUM TO: Dr. Brett M. Baker Assistant Inspector General for Audits FROM: Mary C. Muessle, Director /RA Mark Lombard for/
Office of Administration
SUBJECT:
STATUS OF RECOMMENDATIONS: AUDIT OF THE U.S.
NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSIONS CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION PROCESS (OIG-17-A-20)
This memorandum provides a status of our responses to the resolved recommendations as requested in your September 25, 2018 memorandum titled Status of Recommendation: Audit of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commissions (NRC) Contract Administration Process (OIG A-20). The status of recommendations 1 and 3 is indicated below.
Recommendation 1:
Develop and implement a system that centralizes the management of contractor provided invoices and supporting documentation.
Status: Unchanged. The Invoice Processing Platform (IPP) has been implemented to the maximum extent possible given its current functionality. IPP does not have the ability to process invoices for contract types that may have a holdback associated with them, such as cost-plus-fixed-fee contracts. The NRC continues to work closely with the Department of Treasury to determine what options are available for inclusion of cost-plus-fixed-fee contracts in IPP. The target completion date should allow sufficient time for IPP to be updated to accept invoices for cost-plus-fixed-fee contracts. Invoices associated with other contract types are being processed using IPP.
Target Completion Date: June 30, 2019 (unchanged)
Recommendation 3:
Develop and implement procedures for timely contract closeout initiation by Contracting Officers Representatives (CORs).
CONTACT: Jill Daly, ADM/AMD (301) 415-8079
B. Baker Status: The Office of Administration issued interim guidance to supplement the closeout procedures currently outlined in Management Directive and Handbook 11.1, NRC Acquisition of Supplies and Services ML18268A312) on December 28, 2018.
