'''Contracting and National Security Acquisitions''' (CNSA) is a Government Accountability Office initiative that oversees how federal agencies, including the Department of Defense (DOD), Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and NASA, acquire over $759 billion annually in goods and services—ranging from military aircraft to IT systems—ensuring taxpayer value and national security integrity across the United States as of 2025. Operating as a mission team within GAO since its formalized structure in 2008, CNSA conducts audits and issues reports on high-risk areas like DOD Contract Management and NASA Acquisition Management, delivering over 300 reports since 2010 and influencing $54 billion in savings by 2023 through recommendations on competition, contractor oversight, and acquisition planning. | '''Contracting and National Security Acquisitions''' (CNSA) is a Government Accountability Office initiative that oversees how federal agencies, including the Department of Defense (DOD), Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and NASA, acquire over $759 billion annually in goods and services—ranging from military aircraft to IT systems—ensuring taxpayer value and national security integrity across the United States as of 2025.
