             B-159797                                         June 30, 1981

             The.Honorable Caspar W. Weinberger
             The Secretary of Defense

                  Attention: Assistant Secretary of Defense
                              (Comptroller)                             116118

             Dear Mr. Secretary:

                  Subject: Approval of the Design of the Air Force Real Property
                            Maintenance Industrial Fund Accounting Systemg7(AF1.-81-83)

                  It is my pleasure to approve the design of the Air Force Real Property
             Maintenance Industrial Fund Accounting System, submitted with your letter
             of June 18, 1981, as conforming in all material respects with the approved
             accounting principles and standards of the Department of the Air Force.

                  In evaluating the system design, we looked at the automatic data
             processing aspects primarily to determine their adequacy as to internal
             controls, audit trails, data integrity, and'consistenty with the accounting
-,           specifications.

                  To maintain the approved status of the design, planned changes should
             be discussed with our representatives and, if deemed significant, submitted
             formally for approval.

                  As you know, we have recently audited the Air Force Industrial Fund,
             and as a result have some questions regarding whether legal requirements
             for fund control are being met. If it is determined that changes in the
             fund control procedures are necessary, and these changes affect the account-
             ing system, appropriate changes would need to be made to retain this approva

                  We suggest that your internal auditors periodically review the system
             to assure that it is operating as described in the approved system design.
             At some future date we will examine selected aspects of the system and
             advise you as to whether it is functioning effectively and in accordance
 *           with our approval.

                  We commend you and the Air Force for your continued efforts in improv-
             ing the Department of Defense financial management system.

             bc: Mr. Campbell (AFMD)           Sincerely yours,
                Mrs. Robinson (AFmD)
                Mr. Simonette (AFm)
