Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle (EFV) Program Faces Cost, Schedule, and Performance Risks

Abstract

Given the Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle (EFV) development's cost, schedule, and less-than-expected performance during its initial operational assessment and other issues, we were asked to review the EFV program. This briefing provides the results of our review. It examines performance, schedule, and cost risks facing the program following the program's 2007 Nunn-McCurdy breach and restructuring. In conducting our review, we reviewed a range of program and other Department of Defense (DOD) documents and data, interviewed program and other officials, and observed EFV testing. More details on our approach can be found on slides 23 and 24. We conducted our work from June 2009 to July 2010 in accordance with generally accepted government auditing standards.
