This book was released on 2008 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department of Defense (DoD) manages and operates about 577,000 structures worldwide, valued at about $712 billion. DoD has worked for several years to develop models that can reliably estimate the installation support funds needed to sustain these facilities, and plans to spend over $55 billion to support these facilities and operate its bases in fiscal year 2008. Because GAO has identified support infrastructure as a high-risk area that affects DoD's ability to devote funds to other more critical needs, GAO initiated this review under the Comptroller General's authority. This report discusses the following: (1) the reliability of the annual funding estimates produced by the facilities sustainment model, (2) DoD's progress in meeting funding goals for facility sustainment and recapitalization, (3) the extent to which DoD has addressed deferred facility sustainment funding needs, and (4) the status of DoD's efforts to develop a new installation services model. To address these objectives, GAO reviewed the accuracy and support for the model's key inputs, analyzed pertinent documents, and visited eight selected installations. GAO recommends that DoD take several actions to increase the facilities sustainment model's reliability, address deferred facility sustainment funding requirements, and advance progress in implementing the installation services model. DoD generally agreed with the recommendations.

Book excerpt: The 2005 Defense Base Closure and Realignment Comm. recommended that the DoD establish 12 joint bases by consolidating the mgmt. and support of 26 separate installations, potentially saving $2.3 billion over 20 years. This report evaluated DoD's: (1) efforts and expected costs to deliver installation support at joint bases; and (2) funding for facility sustainment, which includes the maintenance and repair activities necessary to keep facilities in good working order, at all installations. The auditor compared new support standards with the current support levels, visited 9 installations that will become 4 joint bases, and compared facility sustainment funding levels with requirements and goals. Includes recommendations. Charts and tables.

Book excerpt: The fed. gov¿t. is the world's largest and most complex entity, with about $3 trillion in outlays in FY 2008. Reports on high-risk areas bring focus to areas needing attention due to their greater vulnerabilities to fraud, waste, abuse, and mismanagement. These reports also identify areas needing transformation to address major economy, efficiency, or effectiveness challenges. This 2009 update presents the status of high-risk areas listed in 2007 and identifies new high-risk areas. Solutions to high-risk problems offer the potential to save billions of dollars, dramatically improve service to the public, strengthen confidence and trust in the performance and accountability of the U.S. gov¿t., and ensure the ability of gov¿t. to deliver on its promises.

Book excerpt: The concurrent implementation of several major Dept. of Defense (DoD) force structure and infrastructure initiatives has stressed the ability of traditional military construction to provide enough permanent living and working space for servicemembers and other DOD personnel. As a result, the services are using some movable -- or relocatable -- facilities as barracks, administrative offices, medical facilities, dining halls, and equipment maintenance facilities to meet short-term needs. This report assesses the extent to which: (1) the Office of the Sec. of Defense is providing oversight of the services' use of relocatable facilities to meet physical infrastructure needs; and (2) DoD has a strategy for managing such facilities.
