Several agencies were merged into the new Department of Energy on October 1, 1977. These agencies included the Energy Research and Development Administration, Federal Energy Administration, part of the Bureau of Mines, and parts of the Naval Petroleum Reserve establishment. This is a report of the activities of the procurement groups of these agencies during Fiscal Year 1977. The efforts detailed in this report were seminal to the energy program. New technologies; new industries; new products; and new professions are under development. The direction is now set for future energy commercialization. Procurement's role consists of giving the direction for and ensuring the proper application of sound business practices that result in the proper and economical placement of energy contracts and their efficient and timely completion. Procurement Operations' role is to make this happen on assigned programs. It is hoped that this report will convey the scope of the effort involved in this endeavor, and give persons within the Department of Energy a more accurate concept of what is taking place in Procurement Operations.
