Needs To Improve Its Cleaning

And Guard Contracting Activities



GSA needs to improve its basis for paying
and retaining cleaning contractors in regions
3, 4, and 8. More frequent inspections are
needed, better inspection reports should be
prepared, additional inspectors are needed,
and a formal inspector training program
should be conducted. Also, cost efficient
incentives should be provided in cleaning con-
tracts rather than taking deductions for min-
imum labor hours not worked.
GSA needs to award guard contracts on a
competitive basis in region 3. Because of pro-
blems in administering guard contracts, GSA,
as of March 31, 1979, had extended 87 per-
cent of its active contracts with incumbent
contractors. To avoid recurring extensions of
guard contracts, GSA needs to prepare timely
specifications, award new contracts not affect-
ed by bid protests, and continue pursuing leg-
islation permitting multiyear contracting.
