Highlights

GAO reviewed the allegations made by a former professional employee of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Scientific and Technical Information Facility (STIF). NASA selected the Planning Research Corporation (PRC) as the new contractor to operate STIF. According to the former employee's claims, PRC will discontinue making contributions for pension benefits for the employees at STIF and will make no contributions for pension benefits for 3 years. It was also requested that GAO determine whether PRC followed the Office of Management and Budget's Office of Federal Procurement Policy guidelines prohibiting wage busting of service contract employees.
