Abstract
The primary objective of this thesis is to identify the
principal problems encountered by a Navy ship repair facility
during the administration of engineering and technical service
contracts. A background discussion of contract types and the
applicable regulations is provided. The identification of the
principal problems is accomplished through a review of
historical audit results. This review focuses on the
principal problem areas of: 1) vague Statements of Work, 2)
incomplete or biased independent Government cost estimates, 3)
failure to properly perform Contracting Officer's Technical
Representative (COTR) duties. The study then determines the
frequency and severity of these problem areas at the site
studied. An analysis of the background causes of these problems and their impact upon the ship repair repair facility
is presented. A discussion of recommendations that would
reduce or avoid the problem areas is offered.
