OFFICE OF THE DIRECTOR
NOTICE TO
BIDDERS
REGARDING WASTE, FRAUD, AND ABUSE
The Public Printer and the Inspector General have
made a strong commitment to reducing and eliminating
waste, fraud, and abuse in Government Printing Office
(GPO) programs and operations.
In keeping with this commitment, a GPO Fraud, Waste,
and Abuse Telephone Hotline has been established
on 1-800-743-7574. The hotline will be staffed Monday
through Friday between the hours of 7 a.m. through
6 p.m. (these hours refer to the prevailing Washington,
DC time).
Contractors or their employees who discover instances
of waste, fraud, or abuse in dealing with Government
employees or other contractors are encouraged to
notify the GPO. The Office of the Inspector General
(OIG) will use a telephone answering machine with
a recorded message to accommodate those persons who
may want to provide information during non-duty hours
and weekends. However, callers are encouraged to
speak directly to an OIG hotline representative.
As an alternative to the hotline, contractors may
submit information by writing to the following mailing
address:
Office of Inspector General
Office of Investigations
Post Office Box 1790
Washington, DC 20013-1790
Individuals are not required to identify themselves
when providing information by telephone or in writing.
However, those electing to identify themselves are
assured of confidentiality.
Contractors are encouraged to prominently display
the GPO National Hotline poster while consideration
is given to making such a display mandatory under
GPO contract terms.
