About POGO's Federal Contractor Misconduct Database (FCMD)
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.

Misconduct Type: Government Contract Fraud
Enforcement Agency: Defense – Air Force
Contracting Party: Defense - Air Force
Court Type: Administrative
Amount: $65,000
Disposition: Suspend/Debar - Company
Synopsis: In February 2012, the Air Force proposed for debarment the San Antonio, Texas office of Booz Allen Hamilton and five employees. According to the memorandum in support of the proposed debarment, a senior associate at Booz Allen’s San Antonio office allegedly shared with four colleagues protected, non-public information regarding an information technology support services contract that would have given Booz Allen an unfair competitive advantage. The Air Force lifted the suspension in April 2012. Booz Allen accepted responsibility for the incident and agreed to implement company-wide ethics reforms and other remedial measures. Booz Allen also agreed to pay the Air Force $65,000.
