Air Force Warranted Hand Tool Program

Abstract

The purpose of this report determines if the present General Services Administration (GSA) and Air Force Warranted Hand Tool Program (AFWHTP) contracting and management practices will create administrative and management problems at base level. There is a continuing problem of high breakage rates of Air Force tools in the aircraft, missile, and munitions maintenance shops. Other concerns of the AFWHTP are GSA's method of tool procurement, the new competition in contracting legislation and management of the program at base level.
