Synopsis "Department of Homeland Security: further action needed to improve management of special acquisition authority: report to congressional committees."
" When DHS was created in 2002, Congress granted it special acquisition authority to use "other transaction" agreements, which are special vehicles used for research and development or prototype projects. Unlike conventional contracts, other transaction agreements offer flexibilities to reach entities that traditionally have not done business with the government. They have risks, however, because they are exempt from the Federal Acquisition Regulation and other requirements. The Homeland Security Act of 2002 required GAO to report on the use of other transactions by DHS. In 2004 and 2008, GAO reported on challenges DHS faced. This report covers (1) the DHS Science and Technology Directorate's use of other transactions, (2) DHS's progress in addressing challenges, and (3) the information collected on the use of the authority and reported to Congress. GAO examined all 27 available other transaction agreement files, reviewed DHS's other transaction policies and procedures, and interviewed cognizant officials. "
