Planned Construction Of Some Army Dining

Facilities In West Germany Can Be Canceled


In planning for new dining facilities costing
$15.9 million at seven installations in West
Germany, the Army did not consider excess
capacities in existing facilities and did not
use proper planning factors in computing
requirements.

GAO is recommending that four dining
facility construction projects, costing $7.5
million, be canceled and that others be
validated to insure they are fully justified.
GAO is also recommending ways to improve
the plans and procedures used by DOD and
the Army to justify proposed projects in
order to preclude overstating dining facility
requirements.
DOD has agreed to cancel or modify three
projects which will save $4 million. Another
$3.5 million in potential savings is being
reviewed by Army officials. DOD also agreed
to review the planning factors used to deter-
mine the requirements for new dining facil-
ities to insure that identified needs are more
realistic.
