Report to Gen. Georqe S. Elanchard, Commander in Chief,
Department of the Army: United States Aral, Europe; by Josepb
Eder, Director, International Div.: European branch (Fravkfurt).
Contact: International Div.: European Branch (rackfurt).
Between 1974 and 1976, the U.;. Army# Europe 4USAREBU)
instructed its VII Corps, V Corps, aud 21st Surport Command to
establish special projects, identified as Froject Capture, to
retain and eventually use repiir parts and othez items of
material on hand in excess of established stock levels. However,
USAREOR had not established uniform criteria for the retention
of this material and, as a result, large and duplicative
inventories have been retained. No economic analysis has been
performed to determine whether retention was justified. Although
existing procedures provided for some excess material to be
redistributed to meet needs within each corps, there were no
Flans for providing USAREUB or the National Inventcry Cctzol
Points with visibility over these iuventories. As of July 11,
1971, the V Corps had 2,300 items in its Project Capture
inventory; 77% of iteas tested were retained in guestities that
significantly cx~.eeded those required icr £ecuzring needs.
Procedures and criteria developed independently by the V and VII
Corps differed siqnificantly. The Commander in Chief of USAEUR
should direct the establishment of uniform criteria and standard
procedures to be followed by all USAIFUR activities to insure
that retained excesse s are limited to those which are
economically justified based on cost Lenefit avalysis and that
excess quantities of material are made available for
redistribution to all other activities. (BBS)](ViewImageLocal?handle=hein.gao/gaobaaxmk0001&div=1&collection=&method=preview&ext=.png&size=3)
