         Attention: Domenic A. Macioce, President

   Gentlemen:

        We refer to your letter dated February 22, 1980,
    and subsequent correspondence relating to your contract
    No. DAHA 36-77-C-0063 with the Departments of the Army
    and the Air Force, National Guard Bureau.

         You have advised us that you were a prime contrac-
    tor under an agreement for making alterations and addi-
    tions to aircraft hangars. Much of the work involved
    subcontracting. You have also advised us that there were
    numerous changes made under the contracte and that some
    of the work performed by subcontractors was defective.

         According to your letters, several disputes arose
    among you, tho subcontractors and the Government. Appar-
    ently, one dispute between you and a subcontractor resulted
    in arbitration, with Government representatives agreeing
    with the subcontractor rather than you.

         You have all:ged that the Government has breached
    its contract with you, and that Government action has
    brought about a wasteful expenditure of public funds.
    You have also a!eged that Government officials have
    made such gross mistakes that your firm interprets
    these as fraudulent. You have asked us to investigate.

         We have very carefully reviewed all the information
    you have furnished. It is clear there have been disagree-
    ments among the participants in the project4 Our review
    of these materials, however, does not indicate strong
    potential for procarement fraud. We do not as a matter
