The federal government frequently failed to follow procurement rules when awarding work to GC Strategies, the company behind the $59.5 million ArriveCan application, the auditor general’s latest report has found.

“Federal organizations are required to monitor the work performed by contractors. However, we noted that federal organizations frequently disregarded government policies in this area,” the June 10 report said.
