  The Honorable Casper W. Weinberger
  The Secretary of Defense

       Attention: Assistant Secretary of Defense
                    (Comptroller)

  Dear Mr. Secretary:

       Subject: Approval of the Design of the Military Sealift Command
                 Industrial Fund Accounting System (GAO/AFMD-82-119)

       It is my pleasure to approve the design of the Military Sealift Command
  Industrial Fund Accounting System, submitted with your letter of September 15,
  1982, as conforming in all material respects with the accounting principles
  and standards of the Department of the Navy approved in March 1973.

       In evaluating the system design, we looked at the automatic data
  processing aspects primarily to determine their adequacy as to internal con-
  trols, audit trails, data integrity, and consistency 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.

       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 Department of the Navy for your continued efforts
  in improving the Navy's financial management systems.

                                    Sincerely yours,



                                    Comptroller General
                                    of the United States
                                                                      119566
