Air Force Civil Engineer

Cost Accounting System Reports

Should Be Used More Effectively



Air Force civil engineer cost reports for main-
tenance and construction at Air Force bases
show significant differences between planned
and actual labor-hours. These differences are
not being analyzed and action is not being
taken to determine causes and correct the
problems.

Better use of the reports by management
should lead to more realistic work schedules
and increased work force efficiency. This, in
turn, could help reduce the large and growing
backlog of civil engineer projects.

The Air Force should revise its regulations to
require indepth analyses and followup of sig-
nificant differences between planned and
actual labor-hours on civil engineer projects.
