 Dear General Stewart.

      The enclosed summary highlights  our observations from
 an industrial management review we made  at Teledyne CAE,
 Toledo, Ohio, during June - October  1971.  We made this
 review, a comprehensive evaluation  of Teledyne's manu-
 facturing and related operations, to  identify areas where
 improvements could be made to effect  savings to the Govern-
 ment   Some of these involved practices  of Government
 contracting and administrative activities  as they related
 to the contractor's operations.

      Our review surfaced a number of areas  where bettei
management  by the Government and contractor  could save over
$2 million  annually.  We discussed oui  findings with repre-
sentatives  of your Directorate of Propulsion  Subsystems and
Industrial  Resources Division at the end of  our review and
during our  follow-up visit in Decembei 1972    In December
we also visited  the contractor's plant and  found many im-
provements  had been made

     We hope  the enclosed information will assist  you in
future dealings  with Teledyne.  You may also find  our
observations useful  in your evaluations of other  contractors'
operations

     In making  reviews of this type, the contractors'  full
cooperation  is required.  Sometimes this requires access  to
contractor data not  ordinarily available to Government
agencies.  Accordingly,  we have agreed not to identify
contractors by name  in our reports.  We ask that you please
cooperate in this regard.
