Complaint
about FCC funding of improper IT in the FCC
GAO FraudNET response
(March 5th, 2003)
Dr. Prueitt:
This responds to numerous
e-mail messages to the GAO FraudNET concerning difficulties you have experienced
with the FCC/Bearing Point contract.
GAO is responsible for
assisting the Congress in carrying out its oversight responsibilities pertaining
to government programs, activities, and functions. Generally, this involves examining the programs and operations of
federal departments and agencies, rather than reviewing singular allegations of
wrongdoing or poor performance in connection with specific matters.
The situation you describe
is not within the scope of any ongoing GAO work; therefore, we will not pursue your
allegations at this time.
We will retain your
information on file for consideration in any future work we may undertake.
