I served over 40 years conducting investigations, including white collar and major fraud, for the U.S. Department of Defense. Charles Pipers Contract and Procurement Fraud Investigation Guidebook is the ultimate investigation guidebook on all things related to contract and procurement fraud, collusion and corruption. I wish such a manual was available when I first started. This book should be required reading for all current and future fraud fighters, contracting officials, business owners and politicians worldwide.

Charles Pipers Contract and Procurement Fraud Investigation Guidebook describes the contract, procurement and acquisitions process and the types of schemes that take place before, during and after contracts are awarded. It also provides a step-by-step process on how to thoroughly investigate these matters. Had this book been written years ago, a lot of governments and businesses would have saved money and many bad individuals and vendors would have been brought to justice. The Piper Method of conducting thorough and complete investigations needs to become the preventive remedy to stamp out procurement fraud, collusion, and corruption. This book should be required reading in any class or lecture on contracting and it will greatly assist investigators and others in the field.

For over 20 years, Charles Piper and I both previously investigated contract and procurement fraud, collusion and corruption while serving as Federal Special Agents. Piper was one of the most thorough and determined agents I had the pleasure of working with and he epitomized the agencys slogan of dogged pursuit of the truth, wherever it may lead. His Contract and Procurement Fraud Investigation Guidebook illustrates the meticulous way he pursued his cases and the theoretical meets the practical in his War Stories . This book should be considered the new tool for those responsible for investigating and prosecuting contract, procurement or vendor fraud and I highly recommend it.

Contract and Procurement Fraud Investigation Guidebook

Contract and procurement fraud, collusion, and corruption are worldwide problems. Such wrongdoing causes federal, state, and local governments, as well as private-sector corporations and businesses, to lose funds and profits, while the wrongdoers unjustly benefit. Bid riggers conspire to eliminate fair and open competition and unjustly increase prices, allowing some to monopolize industries. Too often, contracting officials and others responsible for placing orders or awarding contracts compromise their integrity and eliminate fair and open competition to favor vendors offering bribes or gifts. This results in unfair playing fields for vendors and causes financial losses for businesses, government agencies, and taxpayers.
