handle is hein.gao/gaobabcid0001 and id is 1 raw text is: BY THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL' Report To The Congress OF THE UNITED STATES GSA's Cleaning Costs Are Needlessly Higher Than In The Private Sector 116206 The General Services Administration is spend- ing several million dollars more per year than is necessary to clean office buildings. Because of high wages and low productivity, GSA spent, in four regions studied, over 50 percent more to clean offices with its own custodians than with contractors, and almost twice what GSA landlords paid to clean Federal leased space. GSA is slowly converting to contract cleaning, but at the present rate this will take about 15 years. During this time, GSA may spend about $250 million more than nec- essary to provide cleaning services with its more costly, less productive custodians. GSA needs to make comparative cost studies to determine whether cleaning services should be provided by its in-house staff or by con- tract personnel, and implement the results. Also, GSA should take specific actions to foster greater productivity and reduce costs of, contract cleaning. AFMD-81-78 AUGUST 24, 1981
