Book excerpt: The Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006 (FFATA) is intended to increase the transparency of and accountability for the over $1 trillion that federal agencies award each year in contracts, loans, grants, and other awards. The act required the OMB to establish, no later than Jan. 1, 2008, a publicly accessible Web site containing data on federal awards. This report determined the extent to which: (1) OMB is complying with FFATA requirements to make federal award data available; (2) federal agencies are reporting required award data; and (3) inconsistencies exist between data on the Web site and records at federal agencies. Includes recommendations. Illustrations.
