Report To The Secretary Of Defense






DOD Can Save Millions By Using Energy

Efficient Centralized Aircraft Support

Systems



The Department of Defense can save mil-
lions of dollars annually by using new
energy efficient centralized aircraft support
systems at certain Air Force and Navy
bases.

The Air Force and Navy have developed and
installed several different systems and
have realized some degree of success. How-
ever, each service has developed its sys-
tems independently. Consequently, there is
no commonality between the services' sys-
tems which could permit economical pro-
curements for standard servicewide sys-
tems. Standardization would also prevent
duplication of design efforts by the services
and minimize proliferation of aircraft sup-
port equipment. It also would allow the ser-
vices to further reduce costs by combining
requirements to assure the most economi-
cal quantities for buying system compo-
nents.

GAO makes specific recommendations to
the Secretaries of Defense and the Air
Force to develop standard systems and to
install them at all bases where feasible and
practical.
