Thank you, Mr. Jowhari.

Thank you to our witnesses for being with us today.

I hope you're feeling better, Ms. Reza.

I'm going to focus a bit on some of the documentation issues that have really come to light.

Among the common themes between the reports from the Auditor General and the procurement ombud is that lack of documentation. There's no written justification for many decisions and a lack of specifics in task authorizations.

Considering that the Auditor General referred to this as some of the worst bookkeeping she'd ever seen, what is PSPC, as the contracting authority, doing to ensure that documentation is appropriately managed?
