June 27, 2013
The New Orleans Office of Inspector General (OIG) issued a follow up letter expressing concern about the Recovery School District program management/construction management contract with Jacobs CS/RS. Inspector General Edouard Quatrevaux urged the State Department of Education to stop relying on a private contractor to protect the state’s interests, saying that such arrangements elsewhere have led to construction fraud.
