    OIG recommends that the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs evaluate and document the use of limited non-career appointees to serve as Contracting Officer’s Representatives (CORs) when Foreign Service Officers bidding for COR positions in Iraq are not qualified with the appropriate level of Federal Acquisition Certification for Contracting Officer’s Representatives and sufficient technical expertise in the contract subject matter, and report the results of the evaluation to the Deputy Secretary of State for his awareness and consideration.
