Firearms How we got here OIG Limited Evaluation
“Inadequate Controls May Leave Firearms Vulnerable to Theft, Loss, and Unauthorized Use” Congressional Hearing “Firearms Lost: GSA’s Administration of the Surplus Firearm Donation Program”
8
Firearms Corrective Actions Completed for OIG Evaluation
Modified GSAXcess to expand data fields and created status records Reconciled FY 16 inventory results to GSAXcess database Established procedure for LEAs/SASPs to notify GSA of any additional firearms not on GSA provided inventory Developed robust search capabilities in GSAXcess (e.g. state, LEA, serial number, firearm status) Created on line inventory function/capability Conducted sample inventory within GSAXcess Completed all actions on revised corrective action plan and reported to OAS on time, per plan
9
Strengthening Inventory Verification OIG Actions
Created Inventory Verification in GSAXcess Status: Completed LEAs verify possession or provide brief explanation on firearm status GSA provides more accurate inventory to LEAs (active status only) Sample Pilot Inventory Status: Completed (100% for 6 States: CA, GA, MA, MS, OK, WV) Feedback: Change in LEA POCs caused issues with notification and assignment of user ID Internet issues/computer access for some small remote LEAs Confusion with certifications and terminology System is easy to use Mitigation: Slight terminology revision in GSAXcess Webinars offered to SASPs and LEAs for FY 17 inventory
10
Strengthening Inventory Verification Beyond OIG
Inventory Certification Statement Represent under penalty of law that reported inventory results are true, accurate, and complete, signed by Chief or Senior Official of LEA FY 16 Certifications Status: Ongoing (April – Present) Initially, 27 SASPs with completed inventories 3 SASPs with late inventories, certification now underway Feedback: Confusion with DLA’s Law Enforcement Support Office (LESO) certifications and GSA FY 16 inventory Some states already had local certifications Mitigation: Clear communication tying certifications to inventory completion and explanation of two part process FY 17 and beyond Certifications To be provided within 10 days of inventory completion in GSAXcess To be signed by Chief or Senior Official of LEA
11
Strengthening Inventory Verification Beyond OIG
Onsite Physical Inventory Verification Verification by physical inspection of firearms or review of custody card FY 16 Pilot with 7 Selected SASPs Status: Pilot Completed Completed: 3 Incomplete: 2 Declined Participation: 2 Feedback: Planned timeframe is too short SASP budget and staffing limitations Overlap/differing requirements for preset LESO required visits Need alternatives beyond visits Mitigation: Accept date stamped photos with visible serial numbers in lieu of physical visit Increase timeframe for SASP completion ***An acceptable version of a custody card must contain the following elements: 1) LEA name, 2) Name of individual responsible for physical custody of item, 3) Item nomenclature (Name), 4) Serial number of item (if applicable), 5) QTY of item (if more than one), 6) Printed name of individual responsible for physical custody of item 7) Signature of individual responsible for physical custody of the item and 8) Date.
12
Strengthening Inventory Verification Beyond OIG
Onsite Physical Inventory Verification (Continued) FY 17 and beyond Tie to annual inventory process (inventory due to GSA on November 30, 2016) FY 17 inventory is basis for next SASP verification reviews SASP verification should be completed by end of March 2017 Reports of onsite visits Submission of date stamped photos with serial number visible ***An acceptable version of a custody card must contain the following elements: 1) LEA name, 2) Name of individual responsible for physical custody of item, 3) Item nomenclature (Name), 4) Serial number of item (if applicable), 5) QTY of item (if more than one), 6) Printed name of individual responsible for physical custody of item 7) Signature of individual responsible for physical custody of the item and 8) Date.

High-Mobility, Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicles (HMMWVs)
Policy revised earlier in July Slight revision in recommendations of the Law Enforcement Equipment Working Group Acknowledgement there are commercial entities that can retrofit HMMWVs to meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) Revisions Removed from hold harmless statement and Conditional Transfer Document Requirement for notification to/approval from GSA for disposition at end of life removed Added to hold harmless statement Requirement for “off road use”/mutilation or destruction does not apply if the donee has written documentation that the HMMWV has been retrofitted to meet FMVSS.” Impact Applicable to donations made since July 7, 2016 To apply to prior donations (not earlier than October 2015) requires revised signed CTD and hold harmless statement
22
Terminology Suspension
Term has unique meanings and in our perspective, ties to requirements in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) for suspension and debarrment Should refer to “deferring” any requests for property; eligibility to receive donations” Similar language in FMR when GSA is dealing with SASPs § What happens if a SASP does not operate in accordance with its plan? If a SASP does not operate in accordance with its plan, GSA may withhold allocation and transfer of surplus property until the nonconformance is corrected.
