Health Physics Technician Subcontracts at Brookhaven National Laboratory

To supplement its health physics staff, Brookhaven National Laboratory (Brookhaven) subcontracted with a support service business (the subcontractor) to obtain the services of health physics technicians. During the performance of these subcontracts, certain issues arose concerning per diem payments to the subcontractor for local technicians. The objective of this audit was to determine whether Brookhaven fully enforced the terms and conditions of its subcontracts for health physics technicians.
