Navy Acquisition Planning for Fielding Weapon Systems

Abstract

The audit objective was to determine the adequacy of the Services' acquisition planning for fielding weapon systems. Specifically, the audit evaluated whether Navy and Air Force acquisition managers adequately developed and implemented plans to ensure effective transition of weapon systems to the user. We also reviewed the management controls related to developing and implementing transition plans. We identified Navy and Air Force weapon systems with supportability requirements that were in the engineering, manufacturing, and development phase or the production phase.
