Contract Terminations at DOD Wholesale Inventory Control Activities

Abstract

An integral part of the DoD Inventory Reduction Plan is to reduce purchases, including quantities on contract, that exceed forecasted requirements. The Army, Navy, and Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) inventory control points (ICPs) provided records from September 1991 to March 1992, showing that 14,461 purchases in process, valued at about $1.3 billion were for materiel that exceeded their requirements. We did not review the Air Force's ICPs because the General Accounting Office was providing similar audit coverage of the Air Force.
