Directed audit, management of HP/Compaq contracts, 2003-732, final report .: P24-732/2003E-PDF
"Over the past decade, PWGSC has established contracts with computer hardware and software suppliers to meet client needs. Hewlett Packard (HP) and its predecessors, Compaq Canada and Digital Equipment Canada (DEC), have been long-standing suppliers of these goods and services. In 1996, an amendment to the PWGSC Supply Manual outlined a division of responsibilities between PWGSC and DND (the client department for the subject contracts) for all major procurement and contract management activities relating to the acquisition of goods and services for DND. In keeping with the requirements of the Supply Manual, PWGSC uses its cost audit function to audit contracts which the department establishes. Over the past 5 years, cost audits have been performed on various DEC, Compaq and HP contracts. The results of cost audits performed on various HP/Compaq contracts, along with other "red flag" indicators, recently prompted PWGSC to review various 1996-2003 HP/Compaq contracts worth approximately $250M"--Context, p. 3.
