This evaluation was performed in response to a complaint made to the Defense Hotline. The complainant alleged that the Navy purchased ship propulsion fuel, also known as bunker fuel, from non-contract sources rather than from the available Defense Energy Support Center (formerly the Defense Fuel Supply Center) contract source on eight separate occasions at Naples, Italy, from October 1995 through May 1996. The complainant further alleged that the Navy paid $92,448 more than it would have if it had bought the fuel from the contract source. Evaluation Objectives. Our evaluation objective was to determine whether Government ships were purchasing bunker fuel from Defense Energy Support Center contract sources at locations where contract fuel was available. We also evaluated whether Defense Energy Support Center customer organizations provided ships' officers sufficient guidance and oversight to ensure that Government ships were purchasing bunker fuel from contract sources wherever possible. An additional objective was to evaluate the management control program as it applied to the stated objectives. We limited our evaluation to determining whether the specific Defense Hotline allegations were substantiated.
