 Baseline information needed
– Inadequate data
– No standard method
 Do we know:
– What is GFE; where it is; and what its worth
 Why?
– Contracts (especially legacy contracts) do not always contain GFE
listings; listings are often ad-hoc and inaccurate
– DoD Component past practice was to “zero out” equipment (GFE)
records
– Little rigor in evaluating contractor need for GFE
The Latest GFE Memo…
 OSD memorandum issued on January
7, 2012
 Goals
– Promote the current clause
requirements
– Demonstrate the relationship between
the clauses, the DoD policy, and the
system capabilities (IUID Registry)
– Get a starting point for equipment
already used by contractors
• Laptop Computers
• Offsite equipment w/no gov’t representative
– Increase visibility and awareness of
the “mystery” surrounding GFE
– Highlight the criticality to auditability
The Memo Explained
 Based on existing policy
– NO NEW POLICY is in this memo
 Requires HQ Level coordination
– Each DoD Component will take a unified approach
 Standardizes DoD practices
– Eliminates ad-hoc data calls to contractors
 Promotes a common enterprise approach
– Use of IUID Registry as master data source for GFE
– Single face to industry
– Consistent with DoD Instruction 8320.4
OSD Methodology Highlights
 Create integrated Project Team to execute methodology
– Program Managers
– Acquisition Managers
– Accountable Property Officers, etc.
 Use IUID Registry to interface with Contractors

OSD Methodology Highlights
 Leverage DCMA’s Property Management System Analysis (PMSA)
to validate data:
– “Adequate” record rating & “Low” risk = accept contractor data
– “Inadequate” record rating & “High” risk = Ctr perform wall to wall
inventory to validate data, data validated independently
– “Inadequate” record rating & “Moderate” risk = evaluate
Corrective Action Plan and use sampling techniques to validate
data
 Emphasize focus on improving business processes to improve
accountability for GFE going forward
 Modify contracts to list GFE to bring contracts into FAR, DFARS
compliance
 Amended contracts to serve as supporting documentation for
government’s rights/obligations to equipment
11
OSD Expectations
 Contracting Officers (Buying Commands)
– Use the opportunity to update property clauses (FAR and DFARS)
and other terms and conditions
– Modify contracts with appropriate property info per PGI 245
 Program Offices
– Work with Accountable Property Officers to establish needed
property records based on risk assessments of contractors
 Contractors
– Report property per contract terms; utilize the IUID Registry as
appropriate
DOD Recommended
Step by Step
 First [immediate]:
– Stop the bleeding.
– No GFE should be furnished without PCO first meeting PGI
245.103-70
 Second: [short term]:
– Identify contracts coming to completion within one year
 Third: [intermediate]:
– Identify contracts going beyond one year
– Modify contracts as needed to add GFE listing
 Fourth: [long term]:
– Update local policy and procedures; sustainment & compliance
