GSA Audits Save $160 for each Dollar Spent
Wednesday, July 14, 2010
Brian D. Miller, Financial Hero
Brian Miller really knows how to save the government money. The inspector general for the General Services Administration is so good at his job that over a four-year period, he found ways to save $160 in GSA operations for every $1 his office was given to conduct audits. That’s according to the Government Accountability Office, which found Miller and his team’s pre-award audits identified nearly $4 billion in potential savings from 2004 to 2008, all while operating an office on a $5 million budget. Not surprisingly, Miller is lobbying to get more funding for his shop, insisting that if he had more resources, he could save even more taxpayer dollars. So far Congress hasn’t complied with his requests.
