Naval Safety School Relocation: More Credible Cost Analysis Is Needed

Abstract

This review finds the Navy's cost analysis is flawed and has not been updated to reflect recent changes in the Navy's relocation plans. Furthermore, the benefits cited in the Chief's report are speculative. The Navy has no plans to correct and update the cost analysis before it proceeds with the relocation, which is currently expected to be no earlier than June 1991. As with any relocation, there is likely to be some temporary adverse impact, but with present cost uncertainties, recent expansion of the School's mission, and the possibility of a contractor change, a reliable assessment of the relocation impact on safety training for the Navy cannot be made at this time.
