 <title>Defense Acquisitions: Success of Advanced SEAL Delivery System Hinges on Establishing a Sound Contracting Strategy and Performance Criteria</title>
</titleInfo>
<abstract>The Advanced SEAL Delivery System (ASDS) is a hybrid combatant
submersible providing clandestine delivery and extraction of Navy
SEALs and equipment in high-threat environments. The first ASDS  
has had significant performance issues and has cost, to date,	 
over $885 million. In May 2006, Congress requested that GAO	 
review ASDS. This report examines (1) how the Navy managed ASDS  
risks through its contracts and (2) the status of major technical
issues and program restructuring.</abstract>
