With annual obligations for goods and services totaling $1.7 billion, the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) is one of the largest of 23 entities coming into the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). INS's procurement organization will continue to acquire goods and services under DHS. GAO was asked to review INS's contracting processes to assess whether INS has an adequate infrastructure to manage its acquisitions and to determine whether INS is following sound contracting policies and procedures in awarding and managing individual contracts. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-03-799/html/GAOREPORTS-GAO-03-799.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-03-799/pdf/GAOREPORTS-GAO-03-799.pdf GAO-03-799 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-GAO-03-799 Other Written Product GAO-03-799; Contract Management: INS Contracting Weaknesses Need Attention from the Department of Homeland Security; Contract administration Internal controls Procurement policy Procurement practices Procurement planning Federal procurement Federal agency reorganization Title 41 Section 253 41 U.S.C. 253 Volume 114 Page 2762A 114 Stat. 2762A Public Law 101-510 Public Law 106-553 Public Law 107-296
