Federal Contractor Misconduct Database
The government awards contracts to companies with histories of misconduct such as contract fraud and environmental, ethics, and labor violations. In the absence of a centralized federal database listing instances of misconduct, the Project On Government Oversight (POGO) is providing such data. We believe that it will lead to improved contracting decisions and public access to information about how the government spends hundreds of billions of taxpayer money each year on goods and services.
Includes LIST of TOP 50 CONTRACTORS and Instances of Misconduct (since 1995-)
SORT the DATA by MISCONDUCT TYPE in the left margin. For example, use the pull-down menu under MISCONDUCT TYPE to read LABOR. Then hit the Enter Key.
