Three-year extension of requirement for reports on commercial price trend analyses of the Department of Defense (sec. 819)

The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 810) that would extend the requirement that the Secretary of Defense submit an annual report on price trend analyses through 2009.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The House recedes.

Senate Armed Services Committee Report 109-254

Three-year extension of requirement for reports on commercial price trend analyses of the Department of Defense (sec. 810)

The committee recommends a provision that would extend the requirement for an annual report on price trend analyses for commercial items purchased by the Defense Logistics Agency and the military departments through 2009. The committee believes that aggressive price trend analysis can play an important role in ensuring that prices paid on Department of Defense contracts are fair and reasonable. This report is an important oversight tool in support of that goal.
