GAO released two reports highly relevant to the lab industry in the last few weeks.

A different topic, but also of federal interest, National Academy of Medicine released a draft report on how best to allocate COVID vaccines - here.  The public comment was brief, September 1-4, although it does run til midnight on September 4.  It tallies 115 pages.
