in its report GAO-15-41: Strategic Focus Needed to Help Manage Vast and
Diverse Warehouse Portfolio (November 12, 2014), found that the Federal
Real Property Profile database contains inconsistent warehouse data and
agencies face a wide range of challenges in acquiring, managing and
disposing of warehouse space. GSA developed a corrective action plan
committing to research best practices in warehouse and inventory
management and publish lessons learned through a notice in the Federal
Register.
