Defense Management: Army Could Achieve Efficiencies by Consolidating Ammunition Management

Abstract

As you requested, we reviewed the Army's implementation of the study's recommendations. Specifically, we assessed the Army's (1) progress toward reorganizing the management of conventional ammunition to address the fragmentation issues and (2) efforts to improve business practices to enhance the operational efficiency of ammunition production and procurement. This is the first in a series of reports that will also address issues such as demilitarization, capacity utilization, and storage of conventional ammunition.
