The Nat. Procurement Fraud Task Force (NPFTF) was created on Oct. 10, 2006, to promote the prevention, early detection, and prosecution of procurement fraud. The NPFTF recognizes that a large part of gov¿t. dollars lost to fraud, waste, and abuse includes dollars lost to grant fraud. As a result, the NPFTF includes preventing, detecting and prosecuting grant fraud as part of its focus. The NPFTF¿s goal is to detect, investigate, and prosecute procurement fraud, grant fraud, and associated corruption. This White Paper is written in support of the NPFTF¿s Grant Fraud Comm¿s. outreach efforts. Its goal is to provide recommendations for enhancing the grant oversight process and identifying best practices for combating grant fraud. Table.
