Baseline information needed • Inadequate data • No standard method • Do we know: • What is GFE; where it is; and what its worth • Why? • Contracts (especially legacy contracts) do not always contain GFE listings; listings are often ad-hoc and inaccurate • DoD Component past practice was to “zero out” equipment (GFE) records • Little rigor in evaluating contractor need for GFE
The Latest GFE Memo… • OSD memorandum issued on January 7, 2012 • Goals • Promote the current clause requirements • Demonstrate the relationship betweenthe clauses, the DoD policy, and thesystem capabilities (IUID Registry) • Get a starting point for equipment already used by contractors • Laptop Computers • Offsite equipment w/no gov’t representative • Increase visibility and awareness ofthe “mystery” surrounding GFE • Highlight the criticality to auditability
The Memo Explained • Based on existing policy • NO NEW POLICY is in this memo • Requires HQ Level coordination • Each DoD Component will take a unified approach • Standardizes DoD practices • Eliminates ad-hoc data calls to contractors • Promotes a common enterprise approach • Use of IUID Registry as master data source for GFE • Single face to industry • Consistent with DoD Instruction 8320.4
OSD Methodology Highlights • Create integrated Project Team to execute methodology • Program Managers • Acquisition Managers • Accountable Property Officers, etc. • Use IUID Registry to interface with Contractors
OSD Methodology Highlights • Leverage DCMA’s Property Management System Analysis (PMSA) to validate data: • “Adequate” record rating & “Low” risk = accept contractor data • “Inadequate” record rating & “High” risk = Ctr perform wall to wall inventory to validate data, data validated independently • “Inadequate” record rating & “Moderate” risk = evaluate Corrective Action Plan and use sampling techniques to validate data • Emphasize focus on improving business processes to improve accountability for GFE going forward • Modify contracts to list GFE to bring contracts into FAR, DFARS compliance • Amended contracts to serve as supporting documentation for government’s rights/obligations to equipment
OSD Expectations • Contracting Officers (Buying Commands) • Use the opportunity to update property clauses (FAR and DFARS) and other terms and conditions • Modify contracts with appropriate property info per PGI 245 • Program Offices • Work with Accountable Property Officers to establish needed property records based on risk assessments of contractors • Contractors • Report property per contract terms; utilize the IUID Registry as appropriate
DOD RecommendedStep by Step • First [immediate]: • Stop the bleeding. • No GFE should be furnished without PCO first meeting PGI 245.103-70 • Second: [short term]: • Identify contracts coming to completion within one year • Third: [intermediate]: • Identify contracts going beyond one year • Modify contracts as needed to add GFE listing • Fourth: [long term]: • Update local policy and procedures; sustainment & compliance
