DEFENSE INVENTORY: Improved Management Framework Needed to Guide Army Best Practice Initiatives

Abstract

In this report, we discuss our evaluation of the Army's best practices implementation schedule, which the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics, and Technology submitted to the Congress on June 14, 1999. This report provides our evaluation of that schedule. Specifically, we (1) evaluated the extent to which that schedule responds to the provisions of the act and (2) identified specific elements of a management framework needed for effective implementation and oversight of the Army's best practice initiatives.
