GAO bows to CIA decision to waive conflicts of interest: Decision indicates GAO will defer to agencies on waivers

Press Coverage | 09.03.10

Government Contracts Group counsel Peter J. Eyre talked with Federal Computer Week about the Government Accountability Office's ruling to defend the Central Intelligence Agency’s decision to waive a contractor's organizational conflict of interest (OCI).

According to Eyre, "GAO's ruling is evidence that it won't second-guess agency officials' decisions to waive OCIs."
