in 1972, the Department of Deiense (DOD) issued a
directive requiring the military services to esablish work
measurement systems for real propercy maintenance taxed on
engineered performance standards and to prepare timely and
meaninqfuJl reports for evaluatinq performance. the use by the
U.S. Army in Europe (USARBOR) of its work measurement system for
real property maintenance was reviewed at two inatallations. At
the two military communities, eagineered performaice standards
were being used for leas than half of the maintenance and repair
workload. In some instauces, the communities were using
non-enqineered performance standards, but many of these
standards were inaccurate end improperij applied. the Arai has
specific guidelines for using work measurement data to evaluate
the efficiency of its maintenance operations, at the two
facilities, internal controls were inadequate to ianure that
labor hours were correctly reported. GZSAEeIIs work measurement
system has not p ovided the benefits such systems offer fot
evaluating the performance and improving the productivity of the
work foce. The Secretary of the Army should require MSA£B1 to:
establish appropriate controls over the recording of estimated
hours and actual hours of maintenance work orders; and compile
summarize, and analyze the productivity data in evaluating work
performance. RiS)](ViewImageLocal?handle=hein.gao/gaobaawuj0001&div=1&collection=&method=preview&ext=.png&size=3)
