J - t;.- N OCT 8 1976 LMOO635 1,-172707 The Honorable Richard S. Schweiker United States Senate Attention: Hr. David Main Dear Seuator Schweiker: In accordance with your March 8, 1976, request and our -.ubsequent discussions with your office, we looked into a constituent's chares that the reorganization of the Uuited States Army Inte.-natioal Lo-istics Center (Center) located at .iew Cumberland Army Depot, Pennsylvania wll create an additional and unnecessary cost to the taxpayer. The su:cessor organization to the Center is the United States Army International Loglsiics Coumand (Command). The constituent alleged that for an annual payroll cost increase of over $1.3 million, employees of the Command at New Cumberland would be performing essentially the same work with new titles and higher grades. This would be accomplished, it was alleged, by altering position descriptions without actually chmig.±g the duties and responsibilities of thu positions. We examined records and held aiscussions with officials at Head- quarters, Urited Ltates A1y riateriel Development and Readiness Command (DARCOM), Alexandria. Virginia (f.rmerly thu United Stat.. . Army flateriel Command), and at the Couwand in New Cumberland. We also hela discissions itr£h officials of the iPhiladclpha Region of the United States Civil Service CommJ saion. We found that the reorganization when completed vill increase both the anuber of personnel and the overall grade structure of the Comuand. Although numerous organizational chsngeo verc made at New Cumberland as a result of the reorganization, we fotmd that no r.-ajor additional r,-..nonsi- bilities were assumed. Further, the-reorganization brougut about numerous revisions in job descriptions and job classifications for New Cumierland personnel. The job descriptions were developed by Department of tie Army personnel , ho were dispatched to New Cumberland. However, these job descriptions have not been reviewed by the Civil Service Commission. One of the key revisions in job description and classiflcati-m aff icted the position known as the country desk officer. This position was formerly clisifted a L GS-il but was upgraded to a GS-12 as a result of the .FlCD-77-1
