GAO          United States
             General Accounting Office
             Washington, D.C. 20548

             General Government Division

             B-249511

             August 6, 1992

             The Honorable John H. Glenn, Jr.                 147290
             Chairman, Committee on Governmental
                Affairs
              United States Senate

              The Honorable William V. Roth
              Ranking Minority Member, Committee
                on Governmental Affairs
              United States Senate

              The Honorable John Conyers, Jr.
              Chairman, Committee on Government
                Operations
              House of Representatives

              The Honorable Frank Horton
              Ranking Minority Member, Committee
                on Government Operations
              House of Representatives

              You asked that we explore the feasibility of
              restructuring the federal government's approach to
              managing and disposing of assets targeted for
              disposition. As agreed, we focused on real property
              dispositions and attempted to identify potential cost
              savings that might accrue from various restructuring
              options, such as consolidating those activities into
              fewer agencies, organized by type of property--i.e.,
              single family, multi-family, farms, commercial office
              space, etc. Over the past several months we have
              attempted to obtain the information necessary for such an
              analysis. However, those efforts have not been
              successful because agencies do not maintain data on a
              sufficiently comparable basis to make meaningful
              evaluations of the potential cost savings associated with
              different restructuring options.

              We have discussed this matter with committee staff
              members, and in June 1992, agreed to discontinue efforts
              to do the requested work. We also informed your staff
              that OMB is currently working with the agencies to have
              them begin collecting comparable data. That work is
