Description - Logistics Support: Controls at Navy's Andros Island Test Range Need Improvement: Nsiad-91-75 by U S Government Accountability Office (
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO examined logistics support services at the Navy's Atlantic Undersea Test and Evaluation Center (AUTEC) at Andros Island, Bahamas, and West Palm Beach, Florida, focusing on the: (1) need for certain general purpose equipment; (2) accuracy of property records; (3) adequacy of inventory controls over supplies; (4) adequacy of Navy oversight of contractor logistical support; and (5) merits of cost-reimbursement and fixed-price contracts.
GAO found that AUTEC: (1) had excess air and marine craft and land vehicles; (2) kept inaccurate property records for equipment and material and significantly understated plant equipment and overstated material inventory in its annual report; and (3) had inadequate inventory controls to prevent waste and abuse. GAO also found that the Navy: (1) did not properly oversee AUTEC logistics support activities because its assigned property administrator was not fully qualified and appointed; and (2) should consider a fixed-price contract for the logistics support portion of the work to replace the existing cost-plus-award-fee contract, since it generally knew the scope of the required logistics support work.
