The Air Force Should Cancel Plans

To Acquire Two Computer Systems

At Most Bases



The Air Force plans to install two computer
systems at about 105 air bases to perform
administrative and operating functions, such
as accounting, finance, personnel, and
supply. GAO estimates that this computer
acquisition program will cost about $600
million to $1 billion more than a one-system
approach over its expected life of 20 years.
GAO believes that the Air Force's approach
is unnecessarily expensive and restricts com-
petition on the largest computer acquisition
ever attempted by the Government.


GAO believes that the Air Force should can-
cel its current request for proposals for this
program. The Air Force should develop a
simpler, more flexible request for proposals
with functional performance requirements
representing actual base-level operations and
needs.
