Report To The Congress

DOD's Industrial Preparedness

Program Needs National Policy

To Effectively Meet Emergency Needs


The Department of Defense's Industrial Pre-
paredness Planning Program is to make sure
U.S. industry can respond to wartime needs
for military items. However, despite repeated
study, this program has remained in a state of
disarray for the past several years. The cur-
rent program has limited funds and a low pri-
ority, and it is ineffective.

Failure to adequately plan with industry may
hinder U.S. ability to meet defense needs.

GAO recommends that the Congress, in co-
ordination with the executive branch, establish
a national policy to define industrial base ex-
pectations. The Secretary of Defense should
restructure the program to complement it.
