Executive Summary 

In accordance with the Inspector General Act Amendments of 1978, as amended, 
the Administrator of the General Services Administration (GSA) submits this report 
to Congress on final actions regarding audit recommendations. The report covers 
the period from October 1, 2011 through March 31, 2012. The Act requires theAdministrator to report directly to the Congress on management decisions and finalactions taken on audit recommendations. This report provides a general overview 
of GSA audit activity and where necessary provides an explanation in cases where 
final action has not been taken on an audit one year after the date of the 
management decision. 

During the six-month period, audit management decisions were issued on 48 audit 
reports. Of these 48 audits, 35 of these audits resulted in $781,434 in recovered 
funds that were a direct savings to the Federal Government (called disallowed 
costs). Also identified within these 35 audits, was $123,411,028 having no budget 
impact but a potential future savings to the Federal Government (called funds to beput to better use). This information is disclosed within Appendix A of this report. 
The potential future savings identified in these audit reports provide opportunities 
for contractual savings within future government contracts with private contractors 
in outlying years. 

During the six-month period, GSA was able to take final action on a total of 17 
audits (See pages 9 and 10, section C.). These audits represent the recovery of 
$6,319,510 in government funds (See page 9, section C.) and the identification of 
$58,019,090 (See page 10, section C.) in potential future savings. 

As of March 31, 2012, 58 audit reports remained open. Of this total, only two were 
under formal appeal/litigation.

Introduction and Overview 

This report, submitted pursuant to the Inspector General Act of 1978, as amended, 
presents management's perspective on audit resolution and follow-up activity at 
GSA for the period beginning October 1, 2011 through March 31, 2012. This is the 
agency's 46th report to the Congress since the implementation of the Act (Public 
Law 100-504). The data in the report indicates that GSA audit follow-up efforts 
continue to play a significant role in the effective management of the agency's 
operations and the accomplishment of its mission. 

Organization 

GSA is organized around two major business functions represented by the Federal 
Acquisition Service (FAS) and the Public Buildings Service (PBS). In addition, 
there are 11 Regions and a number of Staff Offices that provide support to the other 
GSA organizations. 

The Administrator of GSA directs the execution of all functions pertaining to the 
agency. Members of his office, as well as Regional Administrators and Heads of 
Services and Staff Offices, advise and make recommendations on policy or 
operational issues of national scope. 

Each Service is lead by a Commissioner located in the Central Office in 
Washington, DC. The Commissioners are responsible in their respective functional 
areas for policy development, program direction, funding, and interfacing with 
Congressional staffs, clients and other constituents regarding issues of policy of 
international importance.

Organization of Audit Follow-up Program 
in General Services Administration 

Agency Audit Follow-up Process 

GSA has effective systems in place for keeping track of audit recommendations. In 
addition, GSA has senior management commitment to ensure that appropriate 
corrective action is taken. Agency managers have the responsibility to act upon 
auditors’ recommendations, with the audit resolution process being supervised by 
the agency audit follow-up official. The following provides a description of the 
responsibilities of GSA officials involved in the audit follow-up process. 

Senior Agency Official 

The Deputy Administrator is the Senior Agency Official responsible for audit followup 
in the agency. As such, she has overall responsibility for ensuring the adequacy 
of the agency's follow-up system, monitoring the resolution of audit 
recommendations, and ensuring the prompt implementation of corrective actions. 
She also makes final decisions to resolve differences between agency management 
and the Office of Inspector General. 

The Chief Administrative Services Officer 

The Chief Administrative Services Officer provides administrative direction to 
officials in the Office of Administrative Services (OAS) who manage the GSA Audit 
Resolution and Follow-up System. Their responsibilities include: 

 
Acting as the liaison with the Government Accountability Office (GAO) for 
the coordination of GAO audits in progress within GSA and for preparation of 
responses and reports for the signature of the Administrator on GAO 
recommendations as required by law; 
 
Ensuring timely resolution and implementation of internal and external 
audit recommendations made by the OIG as well as GAO; 
6 



 
Overseeing the collection and proper accounting of amounts determined due 
to the Government as the result of audit-related claims; 
 
Analyzing GSA programs upon request from the Administrator, particularly 
as related to past or present audit recommendations; and, 
 
Maintaining an automated report control system for both internal and 
external audits that provides an accurate means for tracking and 
documenting actions taken in implementing audit recommendations. 
Heads of Services and Staff Offices, and Regional Administrators 

Heads of Services and Staff Offices, and Regional Administrators, to whom audit 
recommendations pertain, have primary responsibility for resolving and 
implementing recommendations promptly. Their responsibilities include: 

 
Ensuring controls are implemented to provide timely, accurate, and complete 
responses to audit reports; 
 
Developing, advocating, and documenting agency positions on audit 
recommendations; 
 
Preparing responses to draft and final GAO reports in coordination with the 
Chief Administrative Services Officer; and 
 
Providing comments on audit decision papers prepared by the OIG to ensure 
that management's position on unresolved audit recommendations is properly 
stated.

American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) Audits 

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act) authorized 
the PBS to invest $5.55 billion in federal public building projects. This includes 
$4.5 billion to transform federal facilities into high-performance green buildings, 
$750 million to renovate and construct new federal offices and courthouses, and 
$300 million to construct and renovate border stations. As a result of this increased 
spending, GSA has developed and is implementing risk assessments and control 
methodologies to ensure Recovery Act funds are awarded and distributed in a 
prompt, fair, and reasonable manner; recipients and uses of Recovery Act funds are 
transparent to the public; and public benefits of the funds are reported clearly, 
accurately, and in a timely manner. To assist in the implementation of these goals, 
all Recovery Act monies are tracked and reported. As of March 31, 2012, there are 
62 GSA Recovery Act audits, totaling $266,522,385 audited.

the operations of the establishment, a contractor or grantee; 


18 



 
any other savings that are identified specifically. 
Management Decision. The evaluation by management of the findings and 
recommendations included in an audit report and the issuance of a final decision by 
management concerning its response to such findings and recommendations, 
including planned corrective actions to remedy weaknesses identified in the report. 

Final Action. The completion of all actions that GSA management concluded in its 
management decision was necessary with respect to the findings and 
recommendations included in the audit report. In the event that GSA management 
concluded no action was necessary, final action occurred when the management 
decision was made. 

Questioned Costs. The following is a list of the different management actions 
used by GSA management to resolve questioned costs in an audit report. 

 
Audit reports on which management decisions were made during the 
period: Data pertaining to the number of audit reports on which 
management decisions were made during the period and the associated 
amount of disallowed costs was furnished by the OIG. 
 
Write-offs: For the purposes of this report, write-offs are interpreted torepresent the difference between the disallowed cost and the amount 
successfully recovered. 
Better Use Funds. The following is a list of the different management actions 
used by GSA management to resolve the “better use” of funds in an audit report. 

 
Better Use Funds: The figure represents amounts cited as “cost avoidance” 
and “funds to be put to better use,” as agreed to by GSA management and theOIG. Prior to April 1990, no funds were identified by the OIG specifically as 
“funds to be put to better use,” and no management decisions were issued 
based on the consideration of “better use” of funds. 
 
Budget Impact Funds: Funds identified as “budget impact” involve the 
obligation process. Audit-related savings of these funds, depending on the 
particular fund involved, may be available for reprogramming. 
19 



 
No Budget Impact Funds: Funds identified as “no budget impact” are 
composed of estimated and actual amounts, and do not involve obligated 
monies, and, therefore, cannot be construed as having a material effect onGSA’s appropriated funds. 
 
Audit reports on which management decisions were made during the 
period: Data pertaining to the number of audit reports on which 
management decisions were made during the period and the associated dollar 
amounts agreed to by management were furnished by the OIG. 
 
Value of recommendations that management concluded should not 
or could not be calculable: Management was unable to determine theaward amounts and “better use funds” implemented since the amount is 
included in the overall award to the prime contractor and savings could not 
be determined.
