The fed. gov¿t. long-standing policy has been to use its buying power -- the billions of dollars it spends through contracting each year -- to maximize procurement opportunities for small businesses, including those owned by service-disabled veterans. The Dept. of Veterans Affairs (VA) is to give first and second priority to small businesses owned by service-disabled and other veterans, respectively, when it uses small business preferences to award its contracts. The act also requires VA to establish contracting goals for service disabled veteran-owned small businesses and other veteran-owned small businesses. This report makes publicly available the contents of a briefing held on Jan. 30, 2009 which reviews the VA¿s goals. Charts and tables.

The VA spent about $20 billion in fiscal year 2015 for procurement of a wide range of goods and services that are essential to meeting its mission to serve veterans. A 2015 independent review commissioned by VA found that the procurement acquisition function was unduly complex and inefficient. GAO was asked to look at how VA manages procurement. This report assesses 1) the extent to which VA data systems accurately reflect procurement spending, 2) VA procurement policies and lines of authority, 3) the extent to which VA's acquisition workforce is positioned to carry out its responsibilities, and 4) the extent to which opportunities exist to improve VA's key procurement functions and save money. GAO analyzed VA policies and procedures and reviewed a non-generalizable sample of 37 contract actions for fiscal years 2013 through 2015, selected based on their dollar value, extent of competition, and use of small business set-asides. GAO interviewed relevant officials and visited six contracting offices.

"VA spent about $19 billion to buy goods and services in fiscal year 2014 -- partly through agreements where other agencies award contracts on VA's behalf. VA also uses FFRDCs -- government-funded entities that have relationships with federal agencies to perform certain tasks. These arrangements can help VA meet its needs and take advantage of unique expertise. In light of questions about VA's use of interagency agreements and FFRDCs, GAO was asked to look at how VA uses and manages these methods of procuring goods and services. This report assesses (1) the extent of use and effectiveness of VA's award and oversight of interagency agreements for fiscal years 2012 through 2014, and (2) the extent of use and effectiveness of VA's management of FFRDCs during this same period. GAO reviewed VA procurement policies, federal acquisition regulations, VA contract data, a sample of 21 interagency agreements and 10 FFRDC task orders, chosen, in part, based on obligation amounts; and interviewed officials from VA, other agencies, and MITRE, the primary FFRDC with which VA does business"--Preliminary page.
