  • Draft Report Template
    OFFICE OF THE SPECIAL INSPECTOR GENERAL FOR AFGHANISTAN RECONSTRUCTION USAID Has Disbursed $9.5 Billion for Reconstruction and Funded Some Financial Audits as Required, but Many Audits Face Significant Delays, Accountability Limitations, and Lack of Resources This report was originally issued on April 30, 2012. It was reissued on May 2, 2012, to reflect the U.S. Agency for International Development’s (USAID) written comments on a draft of this report. USAID provided its comments to SIGAR after the original report had been publically released, but SIGAR considered the comments substantive and necessary for a full understanding of the issues presented and USAID’s efforts to address them. As a result, SIGAR made changes to the summary page, the transmittal letter (page i), and the Comments section (page 22) to reflect USAID’s comments. USAID’s comments are reproduced in appendix III. April 30, 2012 SIGAR Audit-12-9 Contract Performance and Oversight/USAID Audits SIGAR Audit-12-9 April 2012 USAID Has Disbursed $9.5 Billion for Reconstruction and Funded Some Financial Audits as Required, but Many Audits Face Significant SIGAR Delays, Accountability Limitations, and Lack of Resources Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction What SIGAR Reviewed Since 2002, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has awarded $15.2 billion in Afghan reconstruction funds to its implementing partners through 305 major (over $100,000) contracts, grants, cooperative agreements, and other funding mechanisms. Financial audits of funds expended under such awards provide USAID with independent assessments of how those funds were used. Ensuring that financial audits are conducted in a timely manner is critical to provide accountability over reconstruction funds in Afghanistan where USAID has experienced challenges in monitoring program implementation.

  • Larry D. Walker President, the Louis Berger Group, Inc. Provided To
    Statement By: Larry D. Walker President, The Louis Berger Group, Inc. Provided To: United States Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Ad Hoc Subcommittee on Contracting Oversight June 30, 2011 Chairman McCaskill, Senator Portman, and members of the subcommittee, I am Larry Walker, president of The Louis Berger Group. I appreciate the opportunity to provide our firm’s perspectives on the Gardez-Khost Highway project and our observations concerning reconstruction projects in Afghanistan based on our experience. By way of background, The Louis Berger Group is an international consulting firm of approximately 3,000 employees worldwide. We provide diverse, multidisciplinary expertise including engineering, program and construction management, and economic development services. Many of our projects are carried out in some of the most fragile and challenging regions of the world. Over the past decade, we have worked as a partner to the U.S. Agency for International Development and other agencies that operate in the developing world or in conflict zones. LBG first began working in Afghanistan in the 1970s, and in December 2001, the company was the first engineering firm to enter Afghanistan after the September 11th attacks. Our work in Afghanistan has consisted mainly of reconstructing and rehabilitating Afghanistan’s physical infrastructure. Over the last eight-and-a-half years, on behalf of USAID, we have successfully reconstructed more than 2,000 kilometers of paved roads, provided nearly 40,000 jobs to Afghans, and trained thousands more. LBG’s USAID-funded projects have irrigated more than 90,000 acres of land, provided reliable power to the Afghan people in southern Afghanistan, and constructed more than 90 schools and clinics to seismic 4 standards.
