Report To The Chairman,

Permanent Subcommittee On Investigations,

Senate Committee On Governmental Affairs


OF THE UNITED STATES




Selected GSA Real Property Operations

Contain Internal Control Weaknesses


The General Services Administration (GSA)
spends $776 million annually to lease work
space and to do nonrecurring reimbursable
work for Federal agencies. Its investment in
operating equipment to support these func-
tions is estimated at $37.9 million.

Reviewing GSA operations, GAO found that
in some cases internal controls did not exist,
and in other cases they had not been prop-
erly implemented. As a result, about $4 mil-
lion in actual and $12 million in potential
overpayments, overcharges, waste, and im-
proper accounting for funds were identified
at a number of GSA locations. Since the
review, GSA has initiated numerous efforts
to improve its internal controls. However,
many improvements still need to be im-
plemented.

This report recommends that the Adminis-
trator of General Services and GSA's
Inspector General take several steps to further
strengthen controls and expand audit cov-
erage over leasing, nonrecurring reimburs-
able work, and operating equipment.
