U.S. Air Force Spent Billions on F117 Engine Sustainment Without Knowing What a Fair Price Was

Abstract

The audit objective was to determine whether the U.S. Air Force (Air Force) is purchasing sole-source F117 engine sustainment services at fair and reasonable prices through the Globemaster III Integrated Sustainment Program (GISP) contract. This is the second in a series of audits addressing the acquisition of F117 engine sustainment services provided by Pratt and Whitney. This report focuses on evaluating the Air Forces approach to pricing the F117 engine sustainment services acquired as commercial services through the GISP base contract.
