The Army expected that its Materiel Command could significantly reduce the number of its civilian personnel by relying more on the private sector. Congress, however, has raised concerns about the extent of reductions in the Army Materiel Command over the years. This report discusses (1) the Army Materiel Command's plans and time frame for achieving the reductions, (2) the projected cost savings from such reductions, and (3) the cited impacts the reductions will have on workload and readiness. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-NSIAD-99-123/html/GAOREPORTS-NSIAD-99-123.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-NSIAD-99-123/pdf/GAOREPORTS-NSIAD-99-123.pdf GAO/NSIAD-99-123 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-NSIAD-99-123 Letter Report GAO/NSIAD-99-123; Quadrennial Defense Review: Status of Efforts to Implement Personnel Reductions in the Army Materiel Command; Military personnel Military downsizing Human resources utilization Civilian employees Military cost control Reductions in force Privatization Personnel management Federal agency reorganization Army Working Capital Fund DOD Quadrennial Defense Review
