Controls Over Contract Obligation Data in the Logistics Modernization Program

Abstract

Our audit objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of controls over the recording and reporting of contract obligations in the Logistics Modernization Program (LMP) system. See Appendix A for a discussion of the scope and methodology and prior audit coverage related to the objective. See Appendix B for a glossary of common terms used in the report. LMP represents the Army?s business system modernization effort to provide an integrated logistics and accounting system to manage the Industrial Operations, Army and the Supply Management, Army activity groups of the Army Working Capital Fund (AWCF). LMP integrates the business processes of sales forecasting, order entry, manufacturing, distribution, materiel management, inventory, and financial information management. The Army Program Executive Office, Enterprise Information Systems (PEO EIS) has program management responsibility for LMP. Implementation of LMP began in July 2003 at Headquarters, U.S. Army Materiel Command (AMC); the Communications-Electronics Life Cycle Management Command (CECOM); Tobyhanna Army Depot; and the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) field sites at Rock Island, Illinois, and St. Louis, Missouri.1 AMC and the PEO EIS plan to begin the second deployment in March 2009 at the Aviation and Missile Life Cycle Management Command, the Corpus Christi Army Depot, and the Letterkenny Army Depot. AMC and the PEO EIS are planning the third deployment for January 2010 at the TACOM Life Cycle Management Command, the Anniston Army Depot, the Red River Army Depot, the Rock Island Arsenal, the Sierra Army Depot, and the Watervliet Arsenal.
