The Navy Value Engineering Program

Abstract

The audit objectives were to determine whether DoD Value Engineering (VE) policies, procedures, and implementation of revised 0MB Circular No. A-131 were adequate and whether Navy VE savings were valid. We also assessed how extensively the VE program was included in contracts, whether contractors believed they were encouraged to participate in the VE Program, and how VE related to other streamlining or savings initiatives. We also evaluated the adequacy of the management control program applicable to the stated objectives.
