The Subcommittee on Contracting and Workforce will meet for a hearing titled, “Hotline Truths II: Audit Reveals Inconsistencies in Defense Subcontracting.”  The hearing is scheduled to begin at 10:00 A.M. on May 17, 2018 in Room 2360 of the Rayburn House Office Building.

As part of the Subcommittee’s ongoing efforts to identify waste, fraud and abuse in federal contracting and to ensure that small contractors have the opportunity to compete, the Subcommittee will hear testimony from the Department of Defense Inspector General (DODIG) concerning the results of a recent audit.  As a result of hotline complaints, the DODIG has been reviewing contracting activities for compliance with the Small Business Act.  The hearing will allow the Subcommittee to learn about the findings of this audit and compare these findings with earlier DODIG audits examining small business subcontracting at other service branches.
