Contingency Contracting: Improved Planning and Management Oversight Needed to Address Challenges with Closing Contracts (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781490439150)

Since 2002, DOD obligated at least 166.6 billion dollars on contracts supporting reconstruction and stabilization efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan. Many of these contingency contracts, in particular those awarded in Iraq, need to be closed. Contract closeout is a key step to ensure the government receives the goods and services it purchased at the agreed upon price and, if done timely, provides opportunities to use unspent funds for other needs and reduces exposure to other financial risks.
