Reports DD 1662 DOD PROPERTY IN THE CUSTODY OF CONTRACTOR’S (DFARS ) Insist on direction from your contracting officer regarding definition/specifics of all property descriptions –Example: Block 12, OTHER PLANT EQUIPMENT »What IS “other plant equipment” ? In our case it is all equipment not otherwise identified and covered in any other block on the form – insist on their guidance, and GET IT IN WRITING! Agree upon calculation formulas from the balance start of period through balance end of period – get guidance in writing as to what calculation method is to be used to capture additions and deletions Also discuss the quantity column – in units or acres – what does “units” mean? Line items? Aggregate totals? Hmmmmm?

Common Sense….. Make Certain All Contract and Company Specific Information Required On The Form Is Correct –Contract Number –Contract Purpose –Business type –Official name Of Parent Company –Cage Code –Etc…

Audits Conduct up close and purposeful audits Develop and advertise audit plans and criteria Encourage self-audits Require periodic feedback Follow-up Demand unacceptable findings be corrected –Provide timeline for corrective actions –Follow through to ensure compliance –Try to have your Senior Management Team support dire consequences if corrections are not made and if consistent failures occur
