GSA is supposed to ensure that those leases' rental values and rates are fair and reasonable.
Our recommendations address several issues we found:
GSA could better identify and correct errors that we found in its database
GSA doesn't know if agencies are managing their leases in a cost-effective way
GSA doesn't systematically review delegated lease documents, so it can't be sure that delegated leases meet requirements
