to result in an operating production system.

through the Inter Agency Procurement Policy Committee, and with
Department of Labor for EEO matters.

In February of 1979 President Carter issued a
statement in support of historically black colleges. The
OL/PMS has been interfacing with White House personnel as
the Agency focal point on this matter.
8. Inspector General
Considerable time was spent by all procurement
personnel in responding to an inspection by a special
Inspection Team established to review Industrial Contracting
and Industrial Security. This was the seventh review in
3 years of some part of the acquisition process. While
areas were noted for improvement, the comments were generally
favorable.
PMS considered as Agency coordinator for compiling
51 recommendations by the task force on Industrial Security
and Industrial Contracting. All approved recommendations
are complete except for 6 which have simply required a lot
of time.
