General Accounting Office, Review of Problems Relating to Management and Administration of Electronic Data Processing Systems in the Federal Government (B-115369) (Apr. 30, 1964).
Overview[]
This report reviewed some of the important Government-wide problems relating to the management and administration of electronic data processing facilities obtained and used by Federal agencies and their contractors. The review of these problems and the manner in which they could be resolved to the maximum financial advantage of the Federal Government reinforced an earlier GAO conclusion that an effective centralized management organization with appropriate authority and responsibility was needed to exercise control over procurement and use of data processing facilities and the related costs incurred by the Government.
