Management of the Joint Simulation System

Abstract

We performed this audit in response to a request from the Director, Joint Staff, to evaluate the management of the Joint Simulation System. The Joint Simulation System is a joint training, analysis, and evaluation software tool that will realistically represent the full range of military joint task force operations and provide a synthetic battlefield. The Joint Simulation System was designated an Acquisition Category ID program on December 16, 1999, and is projected to expend nearly $1.55 billion. This is the second audit report on the management of the Joint Simulation System. The first report addressed specific management concerns raised by the Director, Joint Staff. This report addresses the broader topic of overall financial and program management of the development and acquisition of the Joint Simulation System.
