Logistics Support: Controls at Navy's Andros Island Test Range Need Improvement

Abstract

This report responds to your request and agreement with your staff to examine logistics support services provided at the Navy's Atlantic Undersea Test and Evaluation Center (AUTEC) at Andros Island, Bahamas, and West Palm Beach, Florida. We reviewed major assets with significant investment costs that required considerable operation and maintenance support. Specifically, the review included the (1) need for certain general purpose equipment; (2) accuracy of property records; (3) adequacy of inventory controls over supplies; (4) adequacy of Navy oversight of contractor logistical support; and (5) merits of cost-reimbursement and fixed-price contracts.
