Year 2000 Conversion Program for the Air Force Reserve

Abstract

The overall audit objective was to determine whether the Air Force Reserve is adequately preparing its information technology and weapon systems to resolve data processing issues regarding the year 2000 computing problem. Specifically, the audit determined whether risk assessments, testing, and contingency plans complied with the DoD Year 2000 Management Plan. The Air Force Reserve was making progress in its year 2000 conversion effort, but certain issues required additional management attention. Two of four Air Force Reserve Wings that were reviewed had not made sufficient progress assessing the year 2000 status of infrastructure systems and preparing contingency plans (finding A). The Air Force Reserve initiated actions during the audit to develop interface agreements and a contingency plan for the Improved Weather Reconnaissance System (finding B). No additional recommendations are necessary regarding the Improved Weather Reconnaissance System.
