BACKGROUND



On November 16, 1990, the Deputy Secretary of Defense approved a

Defense Management Report Decision (DMRD) that called for the

consolidation of all DOD printing and duplicating services under

the Navy's industrially funded, centrally managed NPPS by

October 1, 1991. Total in-house costs associated with printing,

duplicating, and the overall management of the printing program in

those facilities were approximately $206 million in fiscal year

1989. The DOD's Comptroller office estimated that the

consolidation would save approximately $25 to $30 million annually.

Estimated savings would not begin until the middle of fiscal year

1993 at which time the savings goals are estimated at $13.7 million

and approximately $30 million annually beginning in 1994.



According to officials from the Office of the Secretary of Defense

(OSD), the military services, and DLA, the methodology used by DOD

in Vreparing the savings estimate was questionable. OSD and Navy
