GSA's Personal Property Repair and Rehabilitation Program: A Potential for Fraud?

The General Services Administration's (GSA) personal property repair and rehabilitation program was established to eliminate duplication of contracting efforts by government agencies and to obtain lower prices through volume contracting and competitive bidding. GSA, through the Federal Property Resources Service and its 11 regional offices, awards indefinite quantity term contracts primarily to small businesses. In fiscal year (FY) 1978, the program reported billings of about $60 million.
