I never ordered contracts; procurement would do that. The process was set up, and that was the process I advised my person, who was the procurement officer, to follow. My person followed that process, got the required signatures, and it would flow through for final authorization by Mr. Ewanovich, as the person who was authorized to sign at the end. So I didn't do that kind of process.
I think there was a glitch when CAC came in. Because it was government to government, I was advised by one of my people that I could sign an MOU. We signed an MOU, but on the MOU there would also be signatures of financial authorities. I believe there were six signatures. I can't remember exactly whose they were. I don't have the MOU.
And it would process through a normal procedure. Finance would have been advised, because we would have set up an accounting process whereby money would come out of it when it was charged by CAC, for example, if we set them up as an agent that could charge.
Procurement then came to us and said their signature would be required. But we always used that sign-off process, the A5 sign-off process, which was all the people who could sign. But once procurement said they had to do it, we apologized. We didn't know that was the process. Procurement never told us that was the process.
So we changed the process. They redid the memoranda of understanding. And their signatures were on all of them.
