Executive summary
Agencies over-rely on contractors for contingency operations
'Inherently governmental' rules do not guide appropriate use of contractors in contingencies
Inattention to contingency contracting leads to massive waste, fraud, and abuse
Looming sustainment costs risk massive new waste
Agencies have not institutionalized acquisition as a core function
Agency structures and authorities prevent effective interagency coordination
Contract competition, management, and enforcement are ineffective
The way forward demands major reforms.
