Washington (Issues Wire / Vocus) April 7, 2008 -- The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) is the recipient of the Association of Government Accountants’ (AGA) prestigious 2007 Certificate of Excellence in Accountability Reporting (CEAR), the agency today announced.

AGA’s Certificate of Excellence is the highest form of recognition in federal government management reporting and recognizes outstanding accountability reporting. The award acknowledges GSA’s hard work and its preparation of an excellent 2007 Performance and Accountability Report (PAR).
“This is a tremendous honor for GSA,” said Administrator Lurita Doan. “Accountability and transparency in operations are two of GSA’s core values and integral to our business success. This achievement further demonstrates to our customers that we are committed to handling their funding with care and attention to detail.”
The AGA award program cited GSA’s PAR as not only informative and concise, but unlike many documents of its type, inviting to persons without a financial background.
GSA will receive its Certificate of Excellence in Accountability Reporting at an award ceremony held Wednesday evening, May 21, 2008 at the National Press Club.
