Report To The Secretary Of The Army








The Army Should Improve Its

Requirements Determination System



This report discusses needed actions by the
U S Army to improve its requirements deter-
mination system

GAO found that the Army Missile Command
misstated requirements for items in a buy po
sition in August 1980 by $13 million because
of inaccurate, unrealistic, and arbitrary lead-
time data

GAO also identified other requirements areas
needing improvement and made specific rec
ommendations to the Secretary of the Army
to make the requirements determination sys
tem more accurate and credible, make better
use of resources, enhance equipment avail-
ability, and avoid inventory investments be-
yond real needs
