Government Performance and Results Act Goals: Tank Miles

Abstract

The Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) of 1993, Public Law 103-62, was designed to improve Government-wide program effectiveness, Government accountability, and, ultimately, public confidence by requiring agencies to identify measurable annual performance goals against which actual achievements can be compared. This report is one in a series of reports resulting from our audits of GPRA goals. This report discusses the FY 1999 DoD GPRA Performance Measure 1.2.14, "Number of Tank Miles per Year." The goal for that performance measure, 800 tank miles per year, was established as the average level of peacetime activity, including in-field training, combat simulations, and equipment maintenance, needed to achieve wartime proficiency standards. DoD established the "Tank Miles" measure to assess achievement of wartime proficiency standards and to serve as a benchmark for the Army ground forces portion of Performance Goal 1.2, "Maintain Trained and Ready Forces."
