This book was released on 2007 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most recent update to the plan shows that DOD has made progress developing and implementing its supply chain management improvement initiatives, but the current performance measures in the plan do not fully demonstrate results. DOD is generally staying on track for implementing its initiatives, although there have been delays in meeting certain milestones. Notwithstanding this overall progress and the commitment of DOD leadership to resolving supply chain problems, the long-term time frames for many of these initiatives present challenges to the department in sustaining progress toward substantially completing their implementation. Moreover, the plan lacks outcome-focused performance measures that could gauge the results of many of the individual improvement initiatives or demonstrate progress in the three focus areas, limiting DOD's ability to fully demonstrate the results achieved through its plan. Increasing the plan's focus on measurable outcomes will enable DOD s internal and external stakeholders, including Congress and OMB, to track the interim and long-term success of DOD s initiatives and help DOD determine if it is meeting its goals of achieving more effective and efficient supply chain management. In addition, our recent work has identified continuing problems related to the three focus areas in DOD's plan. In the area of requirements forecasting, the military services are experiencing difficulties estimating the length of time between the initiation of a procurement action and the receipt of spare parts into the supply system for equipment and weapon systems. We also found continuing problems in the Air Force s inventory management practices, hindering its ability to efficiently and effectively maintain its spare parts inventory for military equipment. Specifically, an average of 52 percent ($1.3 billion) of the Air Force s secondary on-order inventory was not needed to support on-order requirements.

This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The availability of spare parts and other critical items provided through the Department of Defense's (DOD) supply chains affects the readiness and capabilities of U.S. military forces. Since 1990, GAO has designated DOD supply chain management as a high-risk area. In 2005, DOD developed a plan aimed at addressing supply chain problems and having GAO remove this high-risk designation. DOD's plan focuses on three areas: requirements forecasting, asset visibility, and materiel distribution. GAO was asked to provide its views on (1) DOD's progress in developing and implementing the initiatives in its plan, (2) the results of recent work relating to the three focus areas covered by the plan, and (3) the integration of supply chain management with efforts to improve defense business operations. GAO also addressed broader issues of logistics governance and strategic planning. This testimony is based on prior GAO reports and analysis. To determine whether to retain the high-risk designation for supply chain management, GAO considers

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dept. of Defense (DOD) has long been challenged in modernizing its business systems. In 1995, GAO designated DOD's business systems modernization program as high risk because of its vulnerability to fraud, waste, abuse, and mismanagement, and because of missed opportunities to achieve greater efficiencies; and GAO continues to designate it as such today. GAO has also reported that significant potential exists for identifying and avoiding costs associated with duplicative functionality across DOD business system investments, which includes approx. 2,100 systems and costs DOD billions of dollars each year. This report assesses DOD's report on actions taken relative to its business modernization efforts. It analyzes, for ex., the latest version of the business enterprise architecture and enterprise transition plan, investment management policies and procedures, and certification actions for its business system investments.
