Due to a GSA-installed energy-efficient system, the walls were incompatible for the armories, holding cells and facility space that law enforcement requires.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But GSA officials said they thought they were building a district headquarters for the Army Corps of Engineers and consulted with FPS on perimeter security throughout the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">GSA officials also failed to inform FPS about two renovation projects costing approximately $1.1 million, missing out on security enhancement recommendations the service could have provided.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During a security exercise, FPS failed to notify GSA in two regions when it shifted personnel to different federal facilities, leaving some less secure than others, agency officials alleged. But FPS disputed that point, saying it had coordinated with agency headquarters on the operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">GAO offered four recommendations in the report, including that the agencies develop a timeframed plan to reach agreement on their joint strategy, as well as their roles and responsibilities, make their policies more compatible and craft mechanisms to evaluate the effectiveness of their collaborative efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DHS concurred with the recommendations and said it was working on updating the MOA and clarifying the roles and responsibilities required. GSA agreed with the recommendations and said it would work with FPS to implement them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The absence of agreed-upon practices creates inefficiencies
