Defense Management Initiatives: Limited Progress in Implementing
Management Initiatives (Testimony, 04/14/94, GAO/T-AIMD-94-105).

GAO testified on two major Defense Department (DOD) initiatives: the
Defense Business Operations Fund and the Corporate Information
Management (CIM) initiatives.  These efforts, if implemented as
intended, could improve the effectiveness of DOD operations and yield
cost savings and other efficiencies.  To date, however, DOD has had only
limited success in achieving the objectives of the Fund and CIM.  GAO
discusses DOD's progress in implementing these two initiatives and the
problems that must be overcome in order to achieve success.
