Defense Contractor Competition Act

This bill would require the Comptroller General, who leads the Government Accountability Office, to study how mergers and acquisitions of defense contractors over the past ten years have affected competition. The resulting report would go to the congressional defense committees. It would review how well remedies tied to these mergers worked and how the Attorney General, the Federal Trade Commission, and the Secretary of Defense share information during merger reviews. It would also examine how the Secretary of Defense measures the effects of vertical integration on competition, and whether past recommendations to increase competition among defense contractors were carried out.
