A major private housing manager for the U.S. military has continued to make failures similar to the misconduct that led it to admit to committing fraud, according to a U.S. Senate subcommittee report.
Balfour Beatty Communities LLC pleaded guilty in December to defrauding the U.S. Air Force, Army and Navy after a Dept. of Justice investigation found the company schemed to obtain performance bonuses between 2013 and 2019 by misrepresenting maintenance records by lying about repairs and falsifying records. A new report released by the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations identified what it called “ongoing management failures” in Balfour Beatty Communities continuing after the end of the scope of that DOJ investigation, and possibly even after the company pleaded guilty to the fraud charge.
