2.1.8 The table settings provided to the contractor are not properly controlled. The contract for food and housekeeping services mentions the inventory value of the settings provided to the 9th floor Hospitality Centre; however, it does not provide an itemized list, nor could one be located. The inventory value was established at $170,000 for china, $165,000 for silverware and $72,000 for crystal. It is uncertain how these values were arrived at and if they are realistic. Furthermore, XDS has not conducted a physical count of these items since awarding the contract. Consequently, it does not monitor breakage allowances included in the contract nor does it monitor the loss of silverware.
