In addressing the mandate, we assessed DOD's management and internal controls over implementing CTR projects since 2003 by using the control standards for the federal government as criteria. In response to the mandate, we focused on those management and internal control areas considered most relevant to CTR project implementation: (1) building a management structure, (2) risk assessments, (3) performance measures, (4) program reviews, (5) communications, and (6) project monitoring. The Congress also mandated that GAO describe the status of DOD's implementation of legislative mandates covering the CTR program. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-05-329/html/GAOREPORTS-GAO-05-329.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-05-329/pdf/GAOREPORTS-GAO-05-329.pdf GAO-05-329 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-GAO-05-329 Other Written Product GAO-05-329; Cooperative Threat Reduction: DOD Has Improved Its Management and Internal Controls, but Challenges Remain; Arms control agreements Defense cost control Foreign governments Internal controls International cooperation Performance measures Program evaluation Program management Risk management Risk assessment Strategic planning Lessons learned DOD Cooperative Threat Reduction Program Russia Public Law 102-484 Public Law 103-139 Public Law 103-160 Public Law 103-335 Public Law 103-337 Public Law 104-201 Public Law 104-208 Public Law 105-56 Public Law 105-85 Public Law 105-261 Public Law 105-262 Public Law 106-65 Public Law 106-79 Public Law 106-259 Public Law 106-398 Public Law 107-107 Public Law 107-117 Public Law 107-248 Public Law 107-314 Public Law 108-87 Public Law 108-136 Public Law 108-287 Public Law 108-375
