Under 10 U.S.C. 2466, the military departments and defense agencies can use no more than 50 percent of annual depot maintenance funding for work performed by private-sector contractors. DOD also must submit two reports to the Congress annually on the division of depot maintenance funding between the public and private sectors--one about the percentage of funds spent in the previous 2 fiscal years (prior-years report) and one about the current and 4 succeeding fiscal years (future-years report). As required, GAO reviewed the two DOD reports submitted in early 2004 and is, with this report, submitting its views to the Congress on whether (1) the military services met the so-called "50-50 requirement" for fiscal years 2002-3 and (2) the projections for fiscal years 2004-8 are reasonable estimates. GAO also identified key limitations in the 50-50 process that affect the department's ability to comply with the 50-50 requirement. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-04-871/html/GAOREPORTS-GAO-04-871.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-04-871/pdf/GAOREPORTS-GAO-04-871.pdf GAO-04-871 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-GAO-04-871 Other Written Product GAO-04-871; Depot Maintenance: DOD Needs Plan to Ensure Compliance with Public- and Private-Sector Funding Allocation; Data collection Data integrity Defense budgets Defense procurement Department of Defense contractors Financial analysis Financial management systems Financial records Future budget projections Maintenance costs Maintenance services contracts Private sector Reporting requirements Title 10 Section 2460 Title 10 Section 2466 Title 10 Section 2474 10 U.S.C. 2460 10 U.S.C. 2466 10 U.S.C. 2474 Public Law 107-314
