Combating collusive fraud in procurement
from Off the Shelf
This week's Off the Shelf focuses on the mission of the Department of Justice’s Procurement Collusion Strike Force (the PCSF). The PCSF is charged with coordinating the national response to antitrust and related crimes in procurement and grant programs at the federal, state, and local levels. It was created to fight procurement collusion which undermines the integrity of the procurement system, diminishes faith in government, and costs the taxpayer billions of dollars. The PCSF’s director Daniel Glad and deputy director Sandra Talbot join host Roger Waldron to discuss the PCSF’s mission, what it has accomplished, and what contractors and attorneys should know regarding compliance best practices. Glad and Talbot talk about what constitutes antitrust crimes in the context of procurement including collusion and bid-rigging. They also share real life case studies outlining the keys to identifying and combating collusive fraud and explain how the PCSF works across government entities to combat collusive fraud.
