Review of Legality of Quick Reaction Work Order Master Contracts and Task Order Contracts

Gao ID: B-196489 February 15, 1980

GAO was requested to review the legality of two types of contracts, quick reaction work orders and task order contracts.

While we conclude that the contracts are legal in theory, we believe DOE should modify its use of them in order to achieve a greater degree of competition as contemplated by the procurement statutes and regulations.
