Defense Transportation: Monitoring Costs and Benefits Needed While Implementing a New Program for Moving Household Goods
The Department of Defense (DOD) spends more than $1.7 billion
each year to move and store over 600,000 household goods
shipments when relocating military personnel. It conducted and
evaluated several pilot program studies aimed at fixing its
problem-plagued program and, in 2002, issued a report to Congress
with three recommendations. The 1997 Defense Appropriations Act
Conference Report directed GAO to validate the results achieved
by the pilot programs. In response, GAO examined the extent to
which DOD's recommendations to Congress (1) offer solutions to
long-standing problems in the current program and (2) are
supported by the evaluation's findings and should be implemented.
GAO also assessed the soundness of methodologies used by DOD to
develop cost estimates to implement the recommendations.
