Transition of Army Missile Acquisition Programs from Program Management Offices to Commodity Commands

摘要

This report on the transition of Army missile acquisition programs is the first in a series of reports. Subsequent reports will be issued for the transition of severe cuts in its staff levels planned for FY 1998 by transitioning the responsibility for management of weapon systems from program management offices to commodity commands. The primary audit objective was to assess whether program management offices were transferring adequate funds and other resources to Military Department commodity commands for missile acquisition programs transitioning from program management offices. We also reviewed implementation of management controls applicable to transition management.
