BY THE US, GENERAL ACCOUNTING OFFICE


Report To The Secretary Of Labor











Award And Administration Of Contracts

For Job Corps Centers





GAO examined the contract award and
administrative procedures followed by the
Dallas Regional Office of the Department of
Labor's Employment and Training Admin-
istration.
GAO found (1) contracts for operating three
Job Corps centers, which should have been
awarded competitively, were awarded on a
sole-source basis and (2) the region's per-
formance of contract administration func-
tions did not provide adequate assurance
that the Government's resources were
properly used and safeguarded. These prob-
lems may not be unique to the Dallas
region.

This report contains recommendations to
the Secretary regarding these findings. La-
bor accepts the recommendations.
