Report To The Secretary Of Defense






The Services Should Improve Their Processes

For Determining Requirements For Supplies

And Spare Parts



This report contains recommendations tothe
Secretary of Defense for improving the ser-
vices' requirements determination processes
for secondary reparable and expendable
items

GAO found numerous inconsistencies in the
ways the services approach the process of
determining requirements Furthermore, the
data used in the requirements computations
often require extensive adjustments before
they can be used These inconsistencies and
inaccurate data can result in invalid require-
ments and procurement actions

GAO believes that through better supervision
and training of personnel responsible for sys
tems operations and more consistent require
ments determination methods, the services
can make more prudent decisions concerning
the use of limited resources and thereby en-
hance equipment availability and avoid invest
ments in stock levels beyond real needs
