SUBJECT: Presentation to the Contract Review Board on 15 June 1967
of the Proposed Plans of the Offices of Finance and Security
for Implementing the DD/S Recommendations Concerning
the Agency Procurement System
1. Mr. Robert H. Fuchs, Director of Finance, presented a plan
whereby members of the Industrial Contract Audit Division would be physi-
cally located in the various offices of the Directorates requesting a delegation
of contracting responsibility. Under this system, the person placed in the
office will act as the audit member of the procurement team. As a team mem -
ber, he will act individually except for policy guidance from the main Industrial
Contract Audit Division. Whenever time allows, he will also provide assistance
on post contract award services to the main Industrial Contract Audit Division
located in the Ames Building. Thus, he will be assisting on work other than that
of his Directorate during his slack periods, if any. This system will be com-
parable to the present assignment of Budget and Fiscal Officers within the various
offices. Mr. Fuchs pointed out that he has no available slots to provide for
establishing the personnel within the offices. Thus, the slots will have to be
provided by or through the assistance of the particular component requesting the
procurement delegation.
2. Mr. Howard J. Osborn, Director of Security, presented a system
whereby Industrial Security Officers will be integrated into the procurement
teams in a manner similar to that now established in the Offices of Special Activi-
ties and Special Projects, DD/S&T. The Office of Security will provide the man-
power to fill the various slots, however, these officers will be under the command
jurisdiction of the particular Directorate and it is expected that the Directorate
will provide the necessary slots. The primary function of these Industrial Security
Officers will be to act as the security team member and to conduct the initial
security inspection of new contractors. The responsibilities for reinspection
functions of industrial security will remain in the Security Staff, Office of Logis -
tics, with policy guidance coming from the Industrial Security Support Division
of the Office of Security. An operating plan will be written by the Office of
Security and coordinated with the DD/P and DD/S&T for presentation to the Con-
tract Review Board. This operating plan will further clarify the reinspection situa-
tion where only one Directorate is doing business with a particular contractor.
