handle is hein.gao/gaobabatc0001 and id is 1 raw text is: RELEASED BY THE COMPTROLLER GENER, AL/ Report To The Chairman, Committee On The Judiciary United States Senate OTHE UNITED STATES Federal Government Still Striving To Establish Single Drug Procurement System For nearly two decades the Federal Govern- ment has tried to establish a single system for procuring and supplying drugs and medical devices to eliminate unnecessary duplication and reduce costs. Only recently have the Office of Federal Pro curement Policy, DOD, and VA begun to make progress in establishing and implemen- ting such a system. A Government-wide system is beginning to take shape. However, much remains to be accomplished. The Office of Federal Procurement Policy Act Amendments of 1979 established a uniform system for use by Government agencies in procuring goods and services, including drugs. GAO makes recommendations to help Federal agencies fully carry out this congressional direction and the executive branch's policy requiring the purchases of commercial off-the-shelf products when such products will adequately serve the Govern- ment's needs and the use of commercial dis- tribution channels in supplying these products. \~D S7< / K 112756 HRD-80-59 JUNE 30, 1980
