Federal Deployment Center Forward Operations at the Kuwait Hilton

Abstract

The Inspector General accomplished this review at the request of the Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA) Deputy Chief of Staff who had concerns about unauthorized personnel using the facility. The Federal Deployment Center (FDC) at the Kuwait Hilton (FDC-Forward) provides a location for reception, any further deployment training, and re-deployment of executive personnel. Total annual cost for this operation is over $11 million. The Department of the Army (DA) established FDC-Forward at the Kuwait Hilton as the reception location for, "...executive personnel deploying in support of operations in Iraq." The objectives of this review were to determine whether the CPA efficiently and effectively operated FDC-Forward. Specifically, objectives were to determine whether FDC-Forward (1) met the purpose for which it was established by Department of Army Execution Order and (2) established policy to limit the use of FDC-Forward facility to authorized personnel.
