Management and Oversight of the DOD Weather Program

Abstract

The overall objective of this self-initiated series of audits was to evaluate DoD meteorological and oceanographic services and support to determine whether the Military Departments are providing the most cost-effective and nonduplicative meteorological and oceanographic services and support to DoD and other governmental agencies. Specifically, this audit focused on evaluating DoD management and oversight of meteorological, oceanographic, and space weather services and support provided by the Military Departments. We also evaluated the management control program as it related to the audit objectives.
