AFMD-84-4 1 (1983-10-27)

handle is hein.gao/gaobabeih0001 and id is 1 raw text is: RELEFASED REPORT BY THE Comptroller General OF THE UNITED STATES Department Of Defense Progress In Resolving Contract Audits The Department of Defense has progressed in establishing a contract audit resolution system. The purpose of the system is to ensure that managers appropriately use audit recommendations in the negotiation, administration, and settlement of contracts. When th3 system was established in 1981, it had design weaknesses, and managers did not comply with system requirements. Revisions ordered in December 1982 and increased emphasis by top managers ap- pear to have corrected many weaknesses. The revised system just became opera- tional, and it is too early for GAO to deter- mine the extent of compliance with system r'quirements. If properly implemented, the system should satisfy almost all govern- ment requirements for audit resolution. However, GAO thinks a few changes should still be made to improve effectiveness and to ensure economical operations. 177, GAO/AFMD-84-4 ou OCTOBER 27, 1983
