25X1 SUBJECT:
Management Relation Paper Between
OSA and OSP
REFERENCE: ~ dated 6 October 1965
1. The elaborating changes which reference recommends
be considered as part of the basic management relation
paper between OSA and OSP are a constructive contribution.
2. Responsible officers within OSP have reviewed the
document a.nd raised only one point of consideration, with
which I concur. I believe that your suggested delimitation
of the Registry function may be too narrow to be efficient.
I would suggest we allow a reasonable time to transpire
before trying to be precise in defining what functions the
OSA Registry should perform on behalf of OSP. 25X1
3. There is attached an "Addendum" to the
basic OSP/OSA management agreement and I recommen a both
parties affix it to the basic document and consider it part
thereof .

necessary to provide effective support, OSP will be asked

Rroperty management and accountability plus domestic
airlift as noted in paragraph V. D. "

under the management control of O5P."
4. Under paragraph V. SPECIAL MANAGEMENT AREAS:
E. Contracting. should read: "Two Contracting Officers
by name along with their personnel spaces will be trans-
ferred from OSA to OSP. slot will be trans-
ferred from OSA to OSP. nd his manning 25X1
position remain assigned to OSA. This transfer of people
and positions is necessary to OSP to establish a minimum
competent capability in the contracting area. This transfer
leaves OSA critically short of contracting capability to
accomplish its remaining contract functions. A separate
request for a considerable increase in contracting personnel
will be submitted by OSA as a separate subject and request
to DD/S&T. The Director of OSA and Director of OSP
recommend the complete separation of the two contracting
offices, which will require special contracting authority
t o O5P from the DCI. In the event that this is not done
and the Chief Contracting Officer in OSP is only redelegated
authority from the Chief Contracting Officer of OSA, the
Director of OSA requests a document from the DD/S&T
relieving him of all legal responsibility for those contracts
5. Under paragraph V. SPECIAL MANAGEMENT AREAS:
F. Security. should read: "Four Securit Officers, two
H d a ters
oge er wi one c erica
personne an t e a ove ive personnel positions, are
transferred to OSP from OSA. As in the contracting area,
the Director of OSA and the Director of OSP recommend
complete independence between the two Security Offices.
Again, as in contracting, if the security function with the
OSP remains as an administrative part of the security Staff
of OSA, then the Director of OSA requests a document
relieving him of all responsibility for security matters in
those Satellite projects under the management control of
OSP."
