Summary of the DOD Process for Developing Ouantitative Munitions Requirements

摘要

This report summarizes 20 audit reports and also analyzes recently issued studies and memorandums pertaining to the DoD process for developing quantitative munitions requirements. The auditors summarized reports and studies on the process from June 1994 through November 1999. The overall objective was to summarize audits of the munitions requirements determination process that were performed during the last 5 years by the General Accounting Office; the Inspector General, DoD; and the Military Departments. We included analyses of systemic problems that were identified in the reports, studies, and memorandums. We reviewed changes to overall guidance, the phased threat distribution development process, and the capabilities-based munitions requirement process resulting from the audits. We reviewed the management control program as it related to the overall objective.
