More Effective Internal Controls

Needed To Prevent Fraud And Waste

In Military Exchanges



Military exchanges purchase over $3 billion in
goods annually to meet the needs and improve
the well-being of military service members.
Like other large retail organizations, exchanges
are susceptible to fraud, waste, and abuse.
Numerous instances of unlawful practices
have been detected.

Exchange management and oversight organi-
zations have been slow to recognize the prob-
lem and improve controls to deter fraud and
waste. Efforts to strengthen controls and
combat fraud are being made, but better
information, strict compliance with existing
procedures, and tighter controls will bolster
these efforts.

This report contains recommendations to help
exchanges and oversight organizations take a
more active and systematic approach to com-
bating fraud and to improving the overall sys-
tem for managing procurement.
