MEMORANDUM FOR SECRETARY OF DEFENSE SUBJECT: Compendium of Open Office of Inspector General Recommendations to the Department of Defense

The DoD Office of Inspector General (DoD OIG) is issuing this Compendium of Open Recommendations (Compendium) to the DoD and Congress. The DoD OIG conducts independent audits and evaluations of DoD programs and operations. These reports often include recommendations for improvement or corrective actions that, if implemented, could enable the DoD to reduce costs, realize monetary benefits, and improve performance and efficiency. The DoD OIG regularly follows up on open recommendations to determine the status of corrective actions. This Compendium summarizes all recommendations we issued to DoD Components that remained open as of March 31, 2017. As of March 31, 2017, there were 1,298 open recommendations that were issued to 46 DoD Components in 288 DoD OIG audit and evaluation reports. DoD management agreed to take corrective actions on 1,251 of those recommendations. For the remaining 47 open recommendations, the DoD OIG and DoD Components have not agreed on an acceptable corrective action that meets the intent of the recommendation. Of the 1,298 open recommendations, 58 have associated potential monetary benefits. If the DoD Components implemented all 58 recommendations, DoD could save $33.6 billion. The DoD OIG will continue to track open recommendations and engage with DoD senior managers who are responsible for resolving disagreements and implementing corrective actions. Until disagreements are resolved and corrective actions are completed, these recommendations will remain open. In addition, through this report, the OIG’s Semiannual Reports to Congress, and other reports, the DoD OIG intends to keep the heads of DoD Components and Congress informed about the status of the DoD’s actions toward reaching a resolution on unresolved recommendations and the progress on completing agreed-to corrective actions. We will also provide reports to you, the Deputy Secretary of Defense, and DoD Component leadership listing open and unresolved recommendations on a semiannual basis. If you have questions about the Compendium, please contact me or have your staff contact , at .

INTRODUCTION According to the Inspector General Act, the DoD Office of Inspector General (DoD OIG) serves as an independent and objective office in the DoD. Our mission is to detect and deter waste, fraud, and abuse, and improve the efficiency and effectiveness of DoD programs and operations.

As part of this mission, the DoD OIG conducts independent audits and evaluations of DoD programs and operations, which often contain recommendations to improve program management. The DoD OIG also issues recommendations and pursues cases to address fraud, abuse, mismanagement, and waste of DoD funds.

The DoD OIG tracks the status of recommendations made in audit and evaluation reports to ensure that management actions are taken to implement the report’s agreed-upon recommendations. Timely implementation of agreed-upon corrective actions is critical for DoD Components to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of DoD programs and operations, as well as to achieve integrity and accountability goals, reduce costs, manage risks, realize monetary benefits, and improve management processes.

The purpose of this Compendium is to summarize DoD OIG recommendations issued to DoD Components that remained open as of March 31, 2017. An open recommendation is a recommendation made in a previously issued DoD OIG report for which corrective actions have not been completed.

INTRODUCTION

This Compendium lists the number, type, age, and status of 1,298 open recommendations, including related monetary benefits, addressed to its components.

We highlight 30 high‑priority open recommendations that we believe, if implemented, have the potential to result in significant cost savings and improvements to DoD program efficiency and effectiveness. We provide, in each write‑up of the open recommendations, an overview of the DoD OIG project that produced the recommendations and why they are important. The write‑ups also summarize actions agreed‑to and taken by the DoD in response to each recommendation, and a description of information required to close each recommendation.

This Compendium also includes 58 recommendations made in OIG reports that identified potential monetary benefits the DoD could achieve based on management implementation of these recommendations. The 58 recommendations had a total of $33.6 billion in potential monetary benefits.

In addition, the Compendium identifies 47 recommendations that remain unresolved because the DoD Components have not agreed to implement or have not proposed corrective action to resolve the deficiencies identified in the associated findings.

We did not include classified information in this Compendium. Rather, information on classified open recommendations is presented in separate classified Appendixes B and C, which will be provided to appropriate officials in the DoD and congressional committees.

We believe that DoD senior managers should focus attention on the 1,298 open recommendations and ensure that prompt resolution and action is taken, as required by DoD Instruction 7650.03, “Follow‑up on Government Accountability Office (GAO), Inspector General of the Department of Defense (IG DoD), and Internal Audit Reports,” December 18, 2014.

BACKGROUND ON OIG FOLLOWUP PROCESS DoD management and the DoD OIG share the responsibility to follow up on recommendations. DoD managers are responsible for implementing recommendations promptly. At the same time, the DoD OIG follows up to assess whether the agreed‑upon corrective action is taken and meets the intent of the recommendation.

Policy for OIG Followup Process on Recommendations The Inspector General Act of 1978 requires the DoD OIG to conduct independent audits and evaluations of agency programs and operations.

Public Law 104‑106, “National Defense Authorization Act for FY 1996,” (NDAA) requires the Secretary of Defense to make management decisions on all DoD OIG findings and audit recommendations within a maximum of 6 months after the issuance of an audit report. The Act also requires the Secretary of Defense to complete final action on each DoD management decision within 12 months after the report issuance. If action is not completed within 12 months, the DoD OIG must identify the overdue actions in its Semiannual Report to the Congress until final action on the DoD management decision is completed.

The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A‑50 Revised, “Audit Follow‑Up,” defines followup as an integral part of good management and a shared responsibility between agency management officials and auditors.

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY BACKGROUND ON OIG FOLLOWUP PROCESS

Moreover, according to the Circular, implementation of OIG recommendations in a timely manner is essential to the DoD improving efficiency and effectiveness of programs and operations, as well as achieving integrity and accountability goals, reducing costs, managing risks, and improving management processes. The Circular requires each agency to establish systems to assure the prompt and proper resolution and implementation of audit recommendations, and it also requires that resolution be made within a maximum of 6 months after issuance of a final report.

Resolution for most audits and evaluations is defined as the point at which the DoD OIG and agency management or contracting officials agree on the action to be taken in response to the findings and recommendations.

DoD Instruction 7650.03, “Follow‑up on Government Accountability Office (GAO), Inspector General of the Department of Defense (IG DoD), and Internal Audit Reports,” requires the DoD OIG to evaluate corrective actions taken by DoD Components on DoD OIG reports. The Instruction states that the DoD OIG oversees and coordinates followup programs within the DoD and that heads of DoD Components will work with the DoD OIG to resolve disagreements between their respective DoD Components and the DoD OIG. Disagreements that may not be resolved at a lower management level can be submitted to the Deputy Secretary of Defense for decision.

Recommendation Followup Process Before a DoD OIG audit or evaluation report is completed, the DoD OIG solicits the views of the responsible DoD officials, referred to as DoD management, regarding the report’s findings, conclusions, and recommendations. DoD management is asked to provide written comments to the formal draft report, normally within 30 days of the draft report issue date. These written comments should indicate whether DoD management agrees or disagrees with each finding and recommendation in the report; describe and provide the completion dates for corrective actions taken or planned; explain specific reasons for each disagreement; and propose alternative actions, if appropriate. The DoD OIG also requests that DoD management comment on the potential monetary benefits identified in the report.

4 Compendium of Open Office of Inspector General Recommendations to the Department of Defense

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY BACKGROUND ON OIG FOLLOWUP PROCESS

The DoD OIG reviews management comments to ensure that they adequately address the report’s recommendations. The DoD OIG uses the following categories to describe the management’s comments to individual recommendations.

• Unresolved – Management has not agreed to implement the recommendation or has not proposed actions that will address the recommendation. • Resolved – Management had agreed to implement the recommendation or has proposed alternative actions that will adequately address the underlying finding that generated the recommendation. • Closed – The DoD OIG has verified that the agreed upon corrective actions were implemented.

If DoD management agrees with the recommendations in the report, it should also provide information on the corrective actions that have been taken or are planned to be taken to implement the recommendation, and it should include estimated completion dates that will address the recommendations. The DoD OIG then assesses the corrective actions taken or proposed corrective actions and determines if they sufficiently meet the intent of the recommendations. Specifically, in the final report, the DoD OIG evaluates and summarizes the DoD management response to each finding and recommendation, and provides a response to management’s comments, including its comments on the recommendations.

After the DoD OIG categorizes each recommendation as unresolved, resolved, or closed, the final report is placed in the followup process. In this process, the DoD OIG monitors the status of DoD management actions to implement corrective actions.

To monitor the followup process and track the implementation status of recommendations, the DoD OIG records and maintains the status of recommendations in the Defense Automated Management Information System (DAMIS). The DoD OIG periodically requests updates from DoD management on the implementation status of open recommendations and reports data related to open recommendations in the OIG’s Semiannual Report to the Congress.

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY BACKGROUND ON OIG FOLLOWUP PROCESS

Recommendations are generally closed only after the DoD OIG has either reviewed information or supporting documentation provided by DoD management and concluded that all agreed‑upon corrective actions have been completed or performed field verification to verify that the stated corrective actions were taken.

However, if DoD management has not agreed to implement the recommendations or has not proposed alternative actions that will address the recommendations, then the recommendations are considered unresolved and remain open. For example, when DoD management disagrees with the recommendation or comments do not provide a complete response, the DoD OIG may request additional comments in the final report and coordinate with DoD management to address the missing information.

Generally, DoD management is requested to provide additional written comments to the final report within 30 days of the final report issue date. If DoD management does not provide comments to the final report, disagrees with the recommendations, or its comments do not fully address the recommendations, the DoD OIG will start the resolution process and elevate the recommendation through multiple levels of management, as necessary. Ultimately, any unresolved recommendation can be elevated to the Deputy Secretary of Defense (or other levels of Office of the Secretary of Defense management below the Deputy Secretary) if resolution is not reached. Resolution of recommendations is generally achieved at lower levels of management. However, the Deputy Secretary has final decision making authority on unresolved issues and the decision is binding on all parties involved.

In addition to the report followup process described above, the DoD OIG conducts followup audits and evaluations. The purpose of these projects is to verify that corrective action has actually occurred, as agreed to in the DoD management response to the draft and final reports or during the resolution process, and to determine whether the problems identified in the findings still exist. The DoD OIG typically dedicates 10 percent of projects in its oversight plan to followup reviews.

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY SUMMARY OF OPEN RECOMMENDATIONS

Of the 1,298 open recommendations, DoD management has agreed to take corrective actions on 1,251 recommendations. The remaining 47 open recommendations are considered unresolved until the DoD OIG and DoD Components reach an agreement on the report recommendation and the planned corrective actions to implement or address those recommendations. The DoD could achieve $33.6 billion in potential monetary benefits by implementing 58 of the 1,298 recommendations.

We analyzed 27 recommendations that were more than 5 years old to identify trends in these old recommendations. Of the 27 recommendations, we found that:

• 9 were directed to the Army; • 10 were in the area of acquisition; • 12 pertained to updating and revising guidance, policies, and regulations;3 and • 5 recommendations had associated potential monetary benefits.

The 1,298 open recommendations were issued to 46 DoD Components through 288 reports. Figure 2 presents the five DoD Components with the most open recommendations. These five components collectively have 733 open recommendations, which represent 56 percent of all open recommendations.

3 Recommendations that involve revising guidance and realizing monetary benefits often take several years to implement.

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY SUMMARY OF OPEN RECOMMENDATIONS

The DoD OIG uses this document as a planning tool to determine where to allocate its audit, evaluation, and investigative resources. The DoD OIG also uses the top management and performance challenges as a guide for determining future oversight projects. While not all projects planned or undertaken address one of the challenges, the majority address at least one and some more than one. Each of the 30 high-priority open recommendations in this Compendium lists the related management and performance challenge. These open recommendations coincide with the 2016 top management and performance challenges.

The 2016 top ten management and performance challenges are:

• Counter Global Strategic Challenges • Countering the Terrorist Threat • Enabling Effective Acquisition and Contract Management • Increasing Cyber Security and Cyber Capabilities • Improving Financial Management • Protecting Key Defense Infrastructure • Developing Full Spectrum Total Force Capabilities • Building and Maintaining Force Readiness • Ensuring Ethical Conduct • Promoting Continuity and Effective Transition Management

CHAPTER 1

Report No. DODIG‑2009‑062, “Internal Controls Over DoD Cash and Other Monetary Assets,” March 25, 2009

Management Challenge: Improving Financial Management DoD Functional Area: Finance and Accounting

Objective: The objective of this audit was to assess the internal controls over DoD Statements of Accountability and the reporting of Cash and Other Monetary Assets on the DoD Agency‑Wide financial statements.

Finding: The DoD OIG determined that the DoD did not have effective controls The DoD OIG determined over the reporting of Cash and Other Monetary Assets. DoD disbursing officers that the DoD did not have did not charge an appropriation when they obtained operating cash from the effective controls over the U.S. Treasury, as required by regulations. This has been the DoD practice since reporting of Cash and Other the 1950s. As of September 30, 2007, the cash balance held outside of the Monetary Assets. U.S. Treasury was $2.6 billion.

This occurred because the DoD has not established a process and procedures to ensure that disbursing officials charge an appropriation when they obtain cash from the U.S. Treasury. Also, U.S. Treasury guidance does not address cash management in a contingency environment. Additionally, the DoD does not have a current exemption or waiver for the requirement to charge an appropriation when it obtains cash from the U.S. Treasury. As a result, the DoD increased the risk of augmenting its appropriations and causing Antideficiency Act violations.

Recommendation A.1: The DoD OIG recommended that the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller)/Deputy Chief Financial Officer (USD[C]/DCFO):

a. Charge a proper appropriation, or coordinate with the Office of Management and Budget and the U.S. Treasury to: 1) obtain a waiver to hold a certain amount of cash without charging an appropriation, or 2) establish a new U.S. Treasury account symbol to charge when cash is obtained from the U.S. Treasury. Why the Recommendation is Important: Implementing this recommendation is a high priority because the DoD needs to make significant improvement in its controls over cash. Specifically, the DoD needs to establish procedures to ensure that disbursing officials charge an appropriation when they obtain cash from the

CHAPTER 1

U.S. Treasury. The DoD may be in violation of Article I, Section 9, Clause 7 of the U.S. Constitution which states, “No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by law.”

Management Response to the Recommendation: The Acting USD(C)/DCFO agreed with Recommendation A.1.a.(1)‑(2). The Acting USD(C)/DCFO, with the Office of Management and Budget and the U.S. Treasury, agreed to establish a special control account to report and account for cash to support the DoD and other Federal agencies involved in ongoing contingency operations. In addition, the Acting USD(C)/DCFO stated that he is in the process of developing specific policy, criteria, and metrics to ensure that the account is used only as intended. The expected completion date was June 2009.

Implementation Status: The USD(C) provided the U.S. Treasury with proposed interim guidance to resolve reporting requirements related to cash held outside of the U.S. Treasury. The proposed interim guidance suggests establishing the following five new account symbols to charge when cash is obtained from the U.S. Treasury.

• 017 X 6950 Disbursing Officer Cash, Department of Navy • 021 X 6951 Disbursing Officer Cash, Department of Army • 057 X 6952 Disbursing Officer Cash, Department of Air Force • 097 X 6953 Disbursing Officer Cash, Defense Agencies • 096 X 6954 Disbursing Officer Cash, Corps of Engineers, Civil

As of March 14, 2017, DoD leadership requested that Treasury leadership approve the above interim guidance. In addition to Recommendation A.1.a.(1)‑(2), this report contained 15 other recommendations. Of those 16 recommendations, 14 are closed and 2 are resolved.

Information Required to Close the Recommendation: The DoD OIG will close Recommendation A.1.a.(1)‑(2) after the U.S. Treasury incorporates the above five account symbols into the Federal Account Symbols and Titles (FAST) Book, accepts DoD proposed interim guidance, and develops official guidance that meets the intent of the recommendation. The DoD OIG must verify that the special control accounts have been established and that policy is developed to ensure the accounts are used only as intended.

Report No. DODIG‑2012‑087, “Logistics Modernization Program System Procure‑to‑Pay Process Did Not Correct Material Weaknesses,” May 29, 2012

Management Challenge: Improving Financial Management DoD Functional Area: Finance and Accounting

Objective: The objective of this audit was to determine whether appropriate internal controls were in place within the Army’s Logistics Modernization Program (LMP) system to ensure proper recording of accounting transactions related to the purchase of goods and services. The LMP system is an Enterprise Resource Planning system used to record Army logistical and financial transactions. The Army reported to Congress that the LMP system would be used to develop auditable financial statements for the Army Working Capital Fund (AWCF).

The DoD OIG determined Finding: The DoD OIG determined that Army financial and system managers that Army financial and did not reengineer LMP to perform Procure‑to‑Pay (P2P)5 functions correctly or system managers did not correct known material weaknesses. Specifically, the LMP processes developed reengineer LMP to perform did not properly approve, verify, or reconcile P2P transactions or record and Procure‑to‑Pay (P2P) document business events accurately. This occurred because the managers functions correctly or correct known material weaknesses. did not: • develop an effective control environment to identify the root causes of the material weaknesses related to the P2P business process, develop appropriate corrective actions, and reengineer the Army business processes and LMP system functionality to resolve the weaknesses; • establish the LMP control activities needed to accomplish the P2P business process requirements; and • monitor operations within the LMP P2P business process.

5 The P2P business process encompasses all business functions necessary to obtain goods and services. The P2P business process identifies six phases during which activities post financial transactions: Requisitioning and Commitments, Contracting and Obligations, Goods Receipt, Invoicing, Entitlement, and Disbursing.

CHAPTER 1

As a result, Army managers continued the use of costly legacy business processes and LMP failed to provide reliable data to financial managers, which may impede an AWCF audit opinion by FY 2017. As of August 31, 2011, LMP activities reported more than $10.6 billion in abnormal balances within the accounts payable and budgetary general ledger accounts supporting the P2P business process. LMP also continued to create and automatically obligate unmatched disbursements, requiring the Army and DFAS to expend additional funds and resources to accomplish the manual reconciliation processes needed to post disbursements correctly.

Recommendation A.3: The DoD OIG recommended that the Assistant Secretary of the Army (Financial Management and Comptroller) (ASA[FMC]) direct the development of a comprehensive internal control program for the LMP P2P business process to assess the quality of performance and regular management and supervisory activities over the business process. The DoD OIG further recommended that Army managers work with LMP Project Office personnel to ensure that they design and implement the necessary procedures and controls and develop the testing needed to ensure control effectiveness.

Why the Recommendation is Important: This recommendation is important because it relates to the inability of the AWCF to be audit ready. Effective design and operation of controls related to the P2P business process is critical for audit readiness. It demonstrates to financial statement auditors that controls are reliable, which improves the effectiveness and efficiency of the audit. The Army continues to report material weaknesses in the Procure‑to‑Pay business process that contribute to the inability of auditors to render an opinion on the AWCF financial statements.

Management Response to the Recommendation: The ASA(FMC) agreed, and stated that the Army would assess key controls supporting all Financial Improvement and Audit Readiness (FIAR) assessable units, including those related to P2P activities, as part of the Army Financial Improvement Plan. The assessment will determine the effectiveness of the design and operation of applicable controls and identify corrective actions required to bring controls into compliance with audit standards. The ASA(FM&C) also stated that the assessment may recommend establishing a standard performance objective for those managers and supervisors working P2P processes. These actions were to be completed during FY 2013.

CHAPTER 1

Implementation Status: On June 16, 2016, the Army reported that the Audit Readiness Directorate continues to conduct quarterly testing of key manual internal controls performed by Army Materiel Command personnel, including the P2P business process in FY 2016. Results of the testing indicate improvement in the operating effectiveness of key controls. Furthermore, the AWCF is undergoing a limited scope audit by an independent public accounting firm that includes elements of the P2P business process. Results from quarterly testing and the limited scope audit are designed to identify any additional corrective action required prior to a full financial statement audit. The Audit Readiness Directorate continues to track corrective actions through the plan of action and milestones for the LMP Information Technology controls in accordance with the Federal Information System Controls Audit Manual (FISCAM). The status of the plan of action and milestones is briefed to the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army (Financial Operations) (DASA[FO]) and the Deputy Chief of Staff–G‑4 (Sustainment), on a regular basis. Defense Finance and Accounting Service–Columbus Army Audit Assertion personnel also conduct quarterly testing of key manual internal controls. An implementation status request is scheduled for June 2017. In addition to Recommendation A.3, this report contained 30 other recommendations. Of those 31 recommendations, 28 are closed and 3 are resolved.

Information Required to Close the Recommendation: The DoD OIG will close Recommendation A.3 after we receive and verify the assessment results of the key controls supporting all FIAR assessable units, as part of the Army Financial Improvement Plan.

Report No. DODIG‑2013‑084, “Increased Procurement Quantity for CH‑53K Helicopter Not Justified,” May 31, 2013 (Full Report is For Official Use Only)

Management Challenge: Enabling Effective Acquisition and Contract Management DoD Functional Area: Acquisition Program

Objective: The objective of this audit was to evaluate the CH‑53K helicopter program documentation used to support the increased procurement quantity from 156 to 200 aircraft.

Finding: The DoD OIG determined that the Marine Corps procurement quantity The DoD OIG determined for CH‑53K Heavy Lift Helicopters in the DoD FY 2013 President’s Budget was that the Marine Corps procurement quantity overstated by up to 44 aircraft. The CH‑53K is a Marine Corps Heavy Lift for CH‑53K Heavy Lift helicopter replacing the CH‑53E. The Marine Corps could not support the need to Helicopters in the DoD procure a total of 200 aircraft because Headquarters Marine Corps Department FY 2013 President’s Budget of Aviation officials: was overstated by up to 44 aircraft. • did not follow the Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System Instruction and obtain Joint Requirements Oversight Council approval for the increase;6 • incorrectly relied on a 2008 memorandum from the Deputy Commandant for Aviation directing the increase of the procurement quantity to 200 aircraft, without support; and • incorrectly used the 2010‑2011 Force Structure Review’s war‑gaming scenarios as justification for the quantity increase.7

As a result, the Marine Corps risks spending $22.2 billion in procurement and operating and support funding for 44 additional aircraft that may not be needed to support future Marine Corps mission requirements.

6 The Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System Instruction provides a framework for the processes of identifying, validating, and prioritizing capability requirements through the Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System. The Joint Requirements Oversight Council reviews and validates requirements documents. 7 Force Structure Review’s war‑gaming scenarios are reviews to consider changes to the U.S. Marine Corps forces structure based on evolving strategic, operational, tactical, or fiscal environments.

CHAPTER 1

Recommendation 3: The DoD OIG recommended that the Marine Corps Deputy Commandant for Aviation submit, to the Joint Requirements Oversight Council, any requests for additional CH‑53K aircraft, and that the requests be reviewed and a decision made prior to the start of low‑rate initial production (also known as Milestone C). Milestone C was planned to begin February 2016.

Why the Recommendation is Important: Headquarters Marine Corps, Department of Aviation (HQMC Aviation), did not follow the Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System (JCIDS) process to identify, validate, and prioritize capability requirements to support the need for 44 additional CH‑53K aircraft and an increase of $5 billion in procurement funding. The purpose of the JCIDS process is to ensure that the warfighter receives the capabilities required to successfully execute missions, to identify capability gaps, to determine the appropriate solution(s) to fill the gaps, and to assess the affordability and technical feasibility of the identified solution(s).

The CH‑53K will be considered the most powerful helicopter in the Department of Defense and is scheduled to completely replace the CH‑53E Super Stallion by 2030.

CHAPTER 1

Management Response to the Recommendation: The Deputy Commandant for Aviation stated that the CH‑53K procurement quantity derived from the heavy lift helicopter requirements study and an affordability assessment would be incorporated into the Capability Production Document (CPD).8 In accordance with the JCIDS, the CPD will be routed through the Joint Requirements Oversight Council for approval prior to Milestone C, which is one of the defense acquisition system’s three milestones to oversee and manage major defense acquisition programs.

(FOUO) Implementation Status:

On November 22, 2016, the DoD OIG contacted the Marine Corps and requested a status update on actions taken toward incorporating the affordability assessment results and submitting the CPD to the JROC for review and approval. As of March 31, 2017, the DoD OIG had not received a Marine Corps management response to our followup inquiry. In addition to Recommendation 3, this report contained 4 other recommendations. Of those 5 recommendations, 3 are closed and 2 are resolved.

Information Required to Close the Recommendation: The DoD OIG will close Recommendation 3 once we receive documentation and verify that the CH‑53K procurement quantity derived from the affordability assessment was included in the CPD and was submitted to the Joint Requirements Oversight Council for approval in support of the low‑rate initial production decision planned for FY 2017.

8 The Capability Production Document is a document that identifies the specific capability requirements and describes the actual performance of the system as well as the quantity of end items necessary to provide the required capability to the warfighter.

Report No. DODIG‑2014‑052, “DoD Did Not Negotiate Rates With Overseas Health Care Providers and Generally Paid Claims as Billed,” April 1, 2014

Management Challenge: Building and Maintaining Force Readiness, Enabling Effective Acquisition and Contract Management DoD Functional Area: Health Care and Morale

Objective: The objective of this audit was to determine the extent to which the TRICARE Management Activity (TMA), through the TRICARE Overseas Program (TOP) contractor, negotiated and adhered to reasonable rates for health care services provided in overseas locations.

The DoD OIG determined Finding: The DoD OIG determined that TMA and TOP contractor officials that TMA and TOP did not negotiate rates in any of the 163 overseas locations, and authorized contractor officials did not $238 million in health care payments in FY 2012. Also, TMA officials negotiate rates in any of the did not include language in the TOP contract requiring the contractor to 163 overseas locations. negotiate rates with overseas providers. TRICARE payments increased from $21.1 million in FY 2009 to $63.8 million in FY 2012, a 203 percent increase in six high‑dollar–volume locations without negotiated rates or other cost containment measures. According to the Chief of the TOP office, TMA did not negotiate rates because they believed that the TOP contractor could not successfully negotiate lower rates because of local practices and constantly changing market volumes. TMA also believed that negotiating rates could have a negative impact on providing access to quality care to active duty service members and their dependents, and that requiring the TOP contractor to negotiate rates would have increased the cost of the contract. However, TMA officials did not have documentation to support these reasons. Additionally, TMA officials did not have a process in place to negotiate rates. As a result, without negotiating rates or implementing other cost containment measures, TMA potentially paid more than necessary for health care services provided by overseas providers and missed potential opportunities to obtain the best value for health care services.

CHAPTER 1

Recommendation 1.a: The DoD OIG recommended that the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) initiate action to either establish negotiated rates with high‑dollar-volume overseas health care providers or implement other cost containment measures in high‑dollar-volume locations with significant increases.

Why the Recommendation is Important: TMA may have paid more than necessary for health care provided to beneficiaries in overseas locations. TMA did not negotiate rates with overseas providers or implement cost containment measures and generally paid overseas claims as billed without attempting to reduce costs. This is important because negotiated rates with the provider may have reduced TRICARE beneficiaries’ out‑of‑pocket expenses because of lowered cost‑shares. Furthermore, the DoD was facing a historic shortfall in their budget and had implemented deep across‑the‑board cuts. Negotiating rates or implementing other cost containment measures, where practical, would help the DoD to keep overseas health care costs at a reasonable level and within budget. TMA missed potential opportunities to obtain the best value for the health care services.

Management Response to the Recommendation: The Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs (ASD[HA]) agreed, stating that the Defense Health Agency (DHA) would require the TOP follow‑on contractor to conduct a “Negotiated Rates/Access to Care Study” which will include South Korea, the United Kingdom, Japan, Bahrain, and Turkey to determine the impact that negotiating rates and acceptance of a reduced payment would have on access to care. The ASD(HA) stated that once the study was completed and DHA reviewed the findings, DHA would make a decision to either negotiate rates or implement a reduced payment schedule. DHA stated they would make a decision by March 2017.

Implementation Status: A follow‑on TOP contract was awarded in September 2015 requiring the contractor to conduct a “Negotiated Rates/Access to Care Study” to determine the impact that negotiating rates and acceptance of a reduced payment would have on access to care. As of January 17, 2017, DHA was waiting for the findings of the study. Once the government receives and reviews

the findings, DHA will decide whether to negotiate rates or to implement foreign fee schedules. An implementation status request is scheduled for June 2017. In addition to Recommendation 1.a, this report contained 1 other recommendation. Both recommendations are resolved.

Information Required to Close the Recommendation: The DoD OIG will close Recommendation 1.a once DHA reviews the study’s findings and makes a decision on whether to negotiate rates or implement a reduced payment schedule.

Report No. DODIG‑2014‑083, “Insufficient Infrastructure Support to the Fixed Submarine Broadcast System,” June 23, 2014 (Full Report is Classified)

Management Challenge: Developing Full Spectrum Total Force Capabilities DoD Functional Area: Information Technology Resource

Objective: The objective of this evaluation was to examine the condition of the facilities and equipment that support the Fixed Submarine Broadcast System (FSBS) mission and the ability of that infrastructure to sustain the required FSBS capabilities. The FSBS is a secure, one‑way communication system of strategically‑placed very low and low frequency fixed‑site antennae that transmit messages to submarines while they are submerged. The FSBS is a vital means for the President and Secretary of Defense to send orders to ballistic missile submarines during nuclear deterrence patrols. The assessment examined FSBS infrastructure, maintenance, planned or required upgrades, funding, and management.

Finding: The DoD OIG determined that the U.S. Navy capabilities development The DoD OIG document for the FSBS transmitters, shore amplifiers, and timing and determined that the cryptographic equipment included defined requirements, measureable outcomes, U.S. Navy capabilities development document and projects that generally met many of the DoD’s needs. Despite this process, for the FSBS transmitters, the U.S. Navy did not include supporting infrastructure, such as generators or shore amplifiers, and other power sources, in the development or acquisition process. However, timing and cryptographic the FSBS was developed prior to the implementation of the Joint Capabilities equipment included defined Integration and Development System, which generates an Initial Capabilities requirements, measureable Document that could have included supporting infrastructure items such as outcomes, and projects that generators and power sources. This lack of defined infrastructure requirements generally met many of the DoD’s needs. resulted in non‑standardized approaches to identifying life‑cycle requirements for supporting infrastructure at each of the Navy Broadcast Transmit Stations (BTSs), which led to the imminent risk of site failure.

The DoD OIG also determined that only one of the six Navy BTSs had an Outside Authority inspection in the past 6 years, in 2007. With the exception of this single inspection report on Naval Computer and Telecommunications Area Master Station Detachment Cutler, the DoD OIG found no other evidence

CHAPTER 1

that higher headquarters inspected BTSs. Headquarters staffs and Echelon II Inspector General activities identified a lack of resources and the unique command structure of Navy BTSs as the root causes for not performing inspections. The lack of inspections over the past 6 years resulted in diminished readiness and decreased assurance of capabilities to execute assigned missions.

Recommendation B.2: The DoD OIG recommended that the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command develop an acquisition strategy to ensure that the requirements of the “Navy Technical Proficiency Inspection” program; Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff Instruction 6811.01B, “Nuclear Command and Control Technical Performance Criteria;” and Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff Instruction 6810.01B, “Critical Nuclear Command and Control (NC2) Equipment and Facilities,” are met.

Recommendation D.2: The DoD OIG recommended that the Naval Inspector General coordinate with the Navy Technical Proficiency Inspection program managers to ensure the establishment of a comprehensive inspection program based on the requirements directed in the “Navy Technical Proficiency Inspection” program; Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff Instruction 6811.01B, “Nuclear Command and Control Technical Performance Criteria;” and Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff Instruction 6810.01B, “Critical Nuclear Command and Control (NC2) Equipment and Facilities.”

Why these Recommendations are Important: The Fixed Submarine Broadcast System BTSs are the primary means for maintaining communications with the U.S. Navy ballistic missile submarines while they are at sea. The lack of inspections and sustainment puts at risk the FSBS’ ability to transmit messages to U.S. ballistic missile submarines while submerged, a capability which allows them to remain undetected and, therefore, a viable deterrent against any first strike against the United States and its allies.

CHAPTER 1

Management Response to the Recommendations: The Commander, U.S. Fleet Cyber Command, deferred to the Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Research, Development, and Acquisition to determine who should develop the acquisition strategy. The Naval Inspector General (NAVIG) agreed with Recommendation D.2. The NAVIG stated that he would work with stakeholders (U.S. Fleet Cyber Command, Navy Installations Command [CNIC], Assistant Deputy Chief of Naval Operations for Information Dominance [OPNAV N2/N6]) to develop “Navy Technical Proficiency Inspection” guidance similar to OPNAV Instruction 5040.6H, “Department of the Navy Nuclear Weapons Technical Inspections and Nuclear Weapons Readiness Certifications” and its subsequent implementation.

Implementation Status: On March 8, 2017, the DoD OIG met with representatives from the Office of the Chief of Naval Operations and Fleet Cyber Command for an update on actions taken toward developing an acquisition strategy and publishing Navy inspection guidance. Representatives from the Office of the Chief of Naval Operations stated they established the Navy Nuclear Command, Control, and Communications (NC3) Executive Steering Committee and an NC3 Chief Engineer to address the acquisition strategy. OPNAV N2/N6 is coordinating a meeting with the NAVIG and Fleet Cyber Command IG to discuss progress on publishing Navy inspection guidance for the FSBS. In addition to Recommendations B.2 and D.2, this report contained 7 other recommendations. Of those 9 recommendations, 4 are closed and 5 are resolved.

Information Required to Close the Recommendations: The DoD OIG will close Recommendation B.2 after we receive and verify that the developed acquisition strategy meets the requirements set forth in the Navy Technical Proficiency Inspection program and Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff Instructions 6810.01B and 6811.01B. The DoD OIG will close Recommendation D.2 after we review and verify a comprehensive Navy technical proficiency inspection guidance has been developed.

Report No. DODIG‑2014‑090, “Improvements Needed in the General Fund Enterprise Business System Budget‑to‑Report Business Process,” July 2, 2014

Management Challenge: Improving Financial Management DoD Functional Area: Information Technology Resources

Objective: The objective of this audit was to determine whether the General Fund Enterprise Business System (GFEBS) Program Management Office (PMO) implemented the DoD Business Enterprise Architecture (BEA) Budget‑to‑Report (B2R) Business Process to properly support the Army General Fund (AGF) Statement of Budgetary Resources (SBR). GFEBS is the AGF general ledger and, beginning in FY 2013, the system of record for AGF fund distribution. The DoD BEA identifies 15 DoD end‑to‑end business processes that are intended to streamline and enable standard, integrated, and optimized business processes; improve records management; and establish process governance that promotes transparency, collaboration, integration, and innovation across the Army. The B2R business process encompasses all business functions necessary to plan, formulate, create, execute against, and report on the budget and business activities of the Army, including updates to the general ledger.

The DoD OIG determined Finding: The DoD OIG determined that the GFEBS PMO and Army Budget that the General Fund Office (ABO) personnel did not implement the B2R business process to properly Enterprise Business System support the AGF SBR. Specifically, GFEBS PMO personnel did not configure GFEBS Program Management to properly record at least $6.3 billion in AGF B2R transactions. In addition, Office and Army Budget ABO personnel did not accurately record $103.2 billion of AGF B2R transactions Office personnel did not implement the B2R business in GFEBS, the AGF’s accounting system, and did not record 22 FY 2013 AGF process to properly support appropriations, totaling $176.5 billion, in a timely manner. This occurred the AGF SBR. because Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Army (Financial Management and Comptroller) (OASA[FM&C]) personnel did not provide adequate oversight to verify that the GFEBS PMO configured the system to properly record B2R transactions; OASA(FM&C) and GFEBS PMO personnel did not create adequate procedures for some B2R business processes; and ABO personnel were not aware of their responsibilities after the implementation of GFEBS. In addition, GFEBS

CHAPTER 1

was not the main source of data for the FY 2013 AGF SBR because OASA(FM&C) personnel decided to keep most prior‑year funding in legacy systems instead of converting the data into GFEBS. As a result, GFEBS B2R data were unreliable. The GFEBS fourth quarter FY 2013 trial balance contained $6.3 billion in abnormal balances related to budgetary General Ledger Account Codes. In addition, DFAS personnel could not use the GFEBS budgetary trial balance data to prepare the FY 2013 AGF SBR, which reported $266.5 billion of Total Budgetary Resources, without making $141.3 billion of adjustments to the GFEBS trial balance.

Recommendation 1.a: The DoD OIG recommended that the ASA(FMC) verify that the GFEBS posting logic documentation is accurate and complete, and use it to validate GFEBS general ledger account postings.

Why the Recommendation is Important: This recommendation is important because it relates to the Army’s ongoing struggle to verify posting logic in its Enterprise Resource Planning Systems. Errors in posting logic contributed to the $6.5 trillion in unsupported adjustments DFAS prepared to compile the FY 2015 Year‑End Army General Fund Financial Statements. The Army must be able to readily identify how GFEBS is posting transactions so that it can find posting errors, which result in adjustments; prepare the financial statements; or make required U.S. Standard General Ledger yearly updates.

Management Response to the Recommendation: The DASA(FO), responding for the ASA(FMC), agreed, stating that the Army initiated an effort to document and validate the GFEBS posting logic general ledger mapping in phases. The first phase would tie transactions that affect the FY 2015 Schedule of Budgetary Activity (SBA) assertion, followed by the transactions affecting the FY 2017 assertion. He indicated that the Army would also undertake a larger effort to identify, document, and monitor system‑derived posting logic to include current and prior fiscal years. For the B2R process, the Army stated that they would develop a plan of action with milestones to outline the actions required to document and potentially adjust applicable posting logic.

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY

CHAPTER 1

Implementation Status: On September 16, 2016, the DASA(FO) stated that the Army implemented a process to document, update, and maintain the posting logic within GFEBS. He provided a baseline posting logic document, published in the second quarter FY 2015, which he indicated is updated quarterly. In addition, the OASA(FM&C) conducted a review of posting logic scenarios to determine their compliance with the U.S. Government Standard General Ledger. The DASA(FO) indicated that the posting logic utilizes the DoD Standard Financial Information Structure transaction library and identifies B2R transactions affecting the SBA audit. The Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army (Financial Reporting), in cooperation with GFEBS Program Management Office, is expected to validate the completeness and accuracy of the posting logic library by June 2017. An implementation status request is scheduled for June 2017. In addition to Recommendation 1.a, this report contained 5 other recommendations. Of those 6 recommendations, 2 are closed and 4 are resolved.

Information Required to Close the Recommendation: The DoD OIG will close Recommendation 1.a after we receive and verify the results of the DASA(FO) review and validation of the GFEBS posting logic and business rules for the B2R process, and the listing of non‑compliant posting logic that the Army submits to the GFEBS Program Management Office. We will also review the standard operating procedures or other guidance that document this process. In addition, we will determine whether each transaction was submitted to the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller)/Deputy Chief Financial Officer for a waiver or to the PMO for correction.

Report No. DODIG‑2014‑104, “Global Combat Support System– Army Did Not Comply With Treasury and DoD Financial Reporting Requirements,” September 3, 2014

Management Challenge: Improving Financial Management DoD Functional Area: Information Technology Resources

Objective: The objective of this audit was to determine whether the Army fielded the Global Combat Support System–Army (GCSS‑Army) with the proper functionality to provide reliable financial information and support audit readiness requirements. GCSS‑Army is a single system that performs supply, maintenance, property, and tactical finance functions.

Finding: The DoD OIG determined that the Office of the ASA(FMC) and The DoD OIG GCSS-Army PMO personnel did not field GCCS‑Army with the proper functionality determined that the to comply with Treasury and DoD guidance, which is necessary to provide reliable Office of the ASA(FMC) and financial information and support for audit readiness requirements. This occurred GCSS–Army PMO personnel did not field GCCS‑Army with because DoD and Army management did not have adequate controls, including the proper functionality to procedures and annual reviews, in place to ensure GCSS‑Army compliance with comply with Treasury and Treasury and DoD guidance. In addition, the Office of the Under Secretary of DoD guidance. Defense (Comptroller)/Chief Financial Officer (USD[C]/CFO), DoD, and Office of the Deputy Chief Management Officer personnel did not provide adequate account attribute, chart of account, or posting logic guidance. This occurred because the DoD and the Army did not have formal processes for reviewing and ensuring that DoD guidance is complete and consistent with Treasury guidance.

Recommendation 1: The DoD OIG recommended that the USD(C)/CFO, DoD, in coordination with the DoD Deputy Chief Management Officer, comply with DoD Financial Management Regulation, volume 1, chapter 1, which requires compliance with accounting policy, standards, and principles and internal control standards, through the following actions:

a. Develop and implement processes to validate GCSS‑Army compliance by: i. Annually validating Global Combat Support System–Army’s timely compliance with Treasury and DoD guidance for: 1) Account attributes, 2) Chart of accounts, and 3) Posting logic.

32 Compendium of Open Office of Inspector General Recommendations to the Department of Defense Compendium of Open Office of Inspector General Recommendations to the Department of Defense 33

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY

CHAPTER 1

Why the Recommendation is Important: GCSS‑Army is a critical Army logistical and accounting system. This lack of functionality raises doubt as to whether the Army’s projected $4.3 billion investment will result in a system that can comply with the Federal Financial Management Improvement Act; help meet the September 30, 2017, auditability deadline; or help obtain a favorable audit opinion. In addition, incorrect posting logic for accounts that the Army uses to prepare the SBR resulted in abnormal balances of $703.7 million, or 23.5 percent of the $3.0 billion GCSS‑Army fourth quarter FY 2013 Trial Balance.

Management Response to the Recommendation: The Deputy Chief Financial Officer, responding for the USD(C)/CFO, DoD, stated that the OUSD(C)/DCFO and the Deputy Chief Management Officer engaged the Joint Interoperability Test Command to perform conformance testing of financial management systems and address deficiencies reported in recent DoD OIG reports on financial management systems. The DCFO issued a memorandum entitled “DoD United States Standard General Ledger and Standard Financial Information Structure System Testing Requirement,” dated July 14, 2014, outlining the testing initiative. On June 25, 2014, the OUSD(C)/DCFO briefed the Financial Improvement and Audit Readiness Subcommittee on the Joint Interoperability Test Command (JTIC) Validation Program. After the initial year of validation, the Joint Interoperability Test Command will assess new requirements in subsequent years. Because the DoD publishes annual requirements, the assessment of new requirements will be completed annually. The Joint Interoperability Test Command was to test GCSS‑Army in FY 2016.

Implementation Status: On March 7, 2017, the OUSD(C)/DCFO reported that, at the Army’s request, the JITC’s assessment of GCSS‑Army’s compliance measures has been postponed to September 2017. Therefore, after discussions between the GCSS‑Army’s Program Manager and JITC personnel in April 2016, they decided to start the JITC assessment in the third quarter of FY 2017 with an estimated completion date of September 2017. An implementation status request is scheduled for June 2017. In addition to Recommendation 1.a.i, this report contained 11 other recommendations. Of those 12 recommendations, 11 are closed and 1 is resolved.

Report No. DODIG‑2015‑001, “Assessment of the Department of Defense Prisoner Of War/Missing In Action Accounting Community,” October 17, 2014

Management Challenge: Building and Maintaining Force Readiness DoD Functional Area: Other

Objective: The objective of this assessment was to evaluate the DoD’s programs and practices concerning the identification and repatriation of the remains of the Nation’s missing in action (MIA) from past armed conflicts.

The DoD OIG determined Finding: The DoD OIG determined that DoD does not have a disinterment policy that DoD does not have that facilitates the identification of the remains of the thousands of U.S. service a disinterment policy personnel killed in past wars who remain buried as “unknowns.” This occurred that facilitates the because the DoD did not clearly designate an organization with responsibility for identification of the developing and maintaining a disinterment policy. remains of the thousands of U.S. service personnel As a result, there has been confusion between the Services and resulting inaction killed in past wars within the Defense Prisoner of War/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA) on identifying who remain buried the remains of missing service personnel currently buried as “unknowns.” as “unknowns.” Consequently, the DoD POW/MIA accounting community has been unable to pursue an aggressive plan for disinterring remains of personnel designated as “unknowns,” preventing the identification and repatriation of personnel still considered MIA.

Recommendation 5: The DoD OIG recommended that the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness (USD[P&R]) establish DoD‑wide policy regarding the disinterment of unknowns from past conflicts.

Why the Recommendation is Important: Because there is no clearly defined DoD disinterment policy, the DoD MIA accounting community cannot pursue an aggressive plan for disinterring remains designated as “unknowns,” even though current technology would allow identification of many of those remains. The intent of Congress was to direct comprehensive policies for the recovery of and accounting for the missing from past conflicts to bring relief and closure to grieving families, something that is not currently being done.

CHAPTER 1

Management Response to the Recommendation: The Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense (Military Community and Family Policy), responding for the USD(P&R), agreed with this recommendation, stating that a Lean Six Sigma study was conducted in 2012 and a draft DoD Instruction on mortuary affairs, which includes policy on disinterment, was being developed.

Implementation Status: In September 2015, the USD(P&R) reported that the publication of the DoD Instruction on Mortuary Affairs was on hold pending the revision of DoD Directive 1300.22E. In the interim, the USD(P&R) proposed a Directive Type Memorandum (DTM) on disinterment policy, which was in the coordination stage of the DoD Issuance process. The USD(P&R) published DoD Directive 1300.22, “Mortuary Affairs Policy,” on October 30, 2015, and DTM‑16‑003, “Policy Guidance for the Disinterment of Unidentified Human Remains,” on May 5, 2016. The DTM‑16‑003 will be incorporated into the DoD Instruction on Mortuary Affairs, which will be placed into staffing by June 2017. In June 2017, the DoD OIG plans to request a status update on USD(P&R) actions to publish the DoD Instruction on Mortuary Affairs. In addition to Recommendation 5, this report contained 20 other recommendations. Of those 21 recommendations, 16 are closed and 5 are resolved.

Information Required to Close the Recommendation: The DoD OIG will close Recommendation 5 after we obtain the revised DoD Instruction on Mortuary Affairs and verify that it incorporates the policy guidance in DTM‑16‑003.

Report No.DODIG‑2015‑016, “Department of Defense Suicide Event Report Data Quality Assessment,” November 14, 2014

Management Challenge: Building and Maintaining Force Readiness DoD Functional Area: Health Care and Morale

Objective: The objective of this assessment was to determine why the Calendar Year (CY) 2011 Department of Defense Suicide Event Report (DoDSER) Annual Report had a high number of “don’t know/data unavailable” responses to questionnaire items.

The DoD OIG determined Finding: The DoD OIG determined that the CY 2011 DoDSER did not consistently that the CY 2011 DoDSER include highly relevant information from other sources, such as medical records, did not consistently include law enforcement investigations, or command investigations, that would provide highly relevant information a better understanding of the circumstances and stressors related to suicidal from other sources, such behavior. This occurred because DoD policy did not require a multidisciplinary as medical records, law enforcement investigations, approach to gathering data for the DoDSER submission. or command investigations, The CY 2011 DoDSER had a high number of “don’t know/data unavailable” that would provide a better responses in numerous critical data fields. This occurred because individuals understanding of the circumstances and stressors assigned to prepare the DoDSER lacked awareness of how or where to obtain related to suicidal behavior. that information. Additionally, those organizations or individuals who had the missing information, like Line of Duty Investigating Officers, investigative agencies, and suicide prevention offices, often failed to share this information with those preparing the DoDSER.

Recommendation 2.a: The DoD OIG recommended that the USD(P&R) publish guidance requiring suicide event boards to establish a multidisciplinary approach for obtaining the data necessary to make comprehensive DoDSER submissions. For each suicide death, the board should:

1) be a locally (command or installation level) chartered board with defined task, purpose, and outcome for each suicide death review; 2) include participation by unit leadership, medical and mental health organizations, and Military Criminal Investigative organizations; and 3) articulate the requirement to appropriately share information (for example, medical and law enforcement reports) from ongoing investigations.

CHAPTER 1

Why the Recommendation is Important: Without a comprehensive and complete DoDSER submission, it will be difficult for the DoD to conduct the trend or causal analysis necessary for developing effective suicide prevention policy and programs to reduce suicide rates across the force.

Management Response to the Recommendation: The Principal Deputy, responding for the USD(P&R), agreed with the recommendation, stating that they would draft guidance for coordination by April 2015.

Implementation Status: In March 2016, the USD(P&R) reported that the recommendation is in progress and anticipated its implementation in fall 2016 with the publication of the Department of Defense Instruction (DoDI) 6490.aa, “Defense Suicide Prevention Program.” On February 2, 2017, the publication of the DoDI 6490.aa was in formal coordination, with anticipated completion in spring 2017. An implementation status request is scheduled for August 2017. In addition to Recommendation 2.a, this report contained 18 other recommendations. Of those 19 recommendations, 5 are closed and 14 are resolved.

Information Required to Close the Recommendation: The DoD OIG will close Recommendation 2.a after we receive the proposed DoD guidance and verify that it meets the intent of the recommendation.

Report No. DODIG‑2015‑092, “F‑35 Lightning II Program Quality Assurance and Corrective Action Evaluation,” March 11, 2015

Management Challenge: Enabling Effective Acquisition and Contract Management DoD Functional Area: Acquisition Program

Objective: The objective of this evaluation was to inspect the F‑35 Lightning II Program at Lockheed Martin, Fort Worth, Texas, for conformity to the contractually required Aerospace Standard (AS) 9100, “Quality Management Systems–Requirements for Aviation, Space and Defense Organizations.” The DoD OIG also evaluated corrective actions taken in response to nonconformities, findings, and recommendations identified in Report No. DODIG‑2013‑140, “Quality Assurance Assessment of the F‑35 Lightning II Program,” dated September 30, 2013, to determine whether the actions taken were appropriate.

The DoD OIG determined Finding: The DoD OIG determined that the F‑35 Program generally conformed that the F‑35 Program to requirements and showed improvement in quality management system generally conformed to performance since our previous evaluation; however, challenges still remain, as requirements and showed evidenced by 57 nonconformities to the AS9100 standard and 4 opportunities improvement in quality management system for improvement.

Management Challenge: Developing Full Spectrum Total Force Capabilities DoD Functional Area: Logistics

Objective: The objective of this assessment was to determine the DoD’s ability to provide guidance for, plan, and employ theater nuclear weapons.

Finding: The DoD OIG determined that guidance for the employment of nuclear The DoD OIG determined weapons, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Instruction (CJCSI) 3110.04, that guidance for the “Nuclear Supplement to the Joint Strategic Capabilities Plan,” is languishing in employment of nuclear weapons, CJCSI 3110.04, coordination. As of the release date of Report No. DODIG‑2015‑134, the update “Nuclear Supplement to the to CJCSI 3110.04 had been in development for more than 21 months. Joint Strategic Capabilities Plan,” is languishing Recommendation 1.a: The DoD OIG recommended that the Chairman of the in coordination. Joint Chiefs of Staff update CJCSI 3110.04, “Nuclear Supplement to the Joint Strategic Capabilities Plan” planning guidance to identify Geographic Combatant Command planning responsibilities and requirements for developing nuclear response options. Guidance should include type and level of planning information required for directed contingency plans.

Why the Recommendation is Important: The absence of updated guidance has contributed to combatant commands losing much of its expertise for nuclear planning and employment. Training and exercising these functions were also pushed aside as the Commands and Services adjusted to meet their growing set of mission requirements. Geographic Combatant Commands need updated guidance to ensure they are able to provide a credible response to the current threat environment.

Report No. DODIG‑2015‑177, “Assessment of DoD/ USCENTCOM and Coalition Plans/Efforts to Train, Advise, and Assist the Iraqi Army to Defeat the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant,” September 30, 2015 (Full Report is Classified)

Management Challenge: Countering the Terrorist Threat DoD Functional Area: Logistics

Objective: The objective of this assessment was to evaluate the effectiveness of DoD and U.S. Central Command and Coalition plans, operations, and resources to train, advise, and assist the Iraqi Army (IA) to initiate and sustain combat operations in order to defeat the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL).

Finding: The DoD OIG determined that the U.S. Advise and Assist (A&A) The DoD OIG determined personnel at the Taji National Depot (TND) did not have accurate knowledge of that the U.S. Advise and the contents of individual supply warehouses under Iraqi control at that location Assist personnel at the Taji National Depot did not or at other locations throughout Iraq. In some cases, even the IA did not know have accurate knowledge what supplies were present. This resulted from the IA limiting U.S. advisors’ of the contents of individual access to those warehouses and a failure of the IA to maintain a current inventory supply warehouses under of all its stored supplies/equipment. Iraqi control at that location or at other locations Without clear knowledge of what supplies and equipment are on hand, the throughout Iraq. United States and the Coalition could be purchasing supplies and equipment for the IA that are already on hand at TND or in other depots in Iraq.

Recommendation 3: The DoD OIG recommended that the Commander, Joint Task Force–Operation Inherent Resolve (CJTF‑OIR), in coordination with Commander, Combined Joint Forces Land Component Command–Iraq and the Iraqi Minister of Defense, develop a plan that allows U.S. and Coalition access to the warehouses at Taji National Depot and other supply depot sites within an expedited time period.

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY

CHAPTER 1

Why the Recommendation is Important: The DoD continues to fund supplies for the Iraqi government and, until this recommendation is implemented, the DoD could be spending money on equipment that is not needed, diverting funding from other needs. Furthermore, the United States has agreed to provide material and equipment, through the Government of Iraq, to the IA and selected elements of the Popular Mobilization Forces (militias). Unless the U.S. advisors can determine what supplies and equipment are on hand in Iraqi warehouses at TND and elsewhere, we cannot eliminate the possibility that various factions of the Popular Mobilization Forces that the United States has not agreed to support are being armed and supplied with material from those warehouses that the IA needs. The United States could subsequently be asked to replace that material using Iraq Train and Equip Fund funding to meet those IA needs.

Management Response to the Recommendation: The CJTF‑OIR agreed with this recommendation stating that, in coordination with the Government of Iraq, CJTF‑OIR will develop a plan that enables access to IA warehouses in order to establish accountability of equipment.

Implementation Status: In August 2016, the CJTF‑OIR reported that the 1st Theater Sustainment Command (TSC) teams gained access to some Iraqi storage facilities and would conduct a survey to identify all logistics support facilities within its A&A and Build Partner Capacity (BPC) footprint and their owning agency, seeking to gain access through the Iraqi MOD. The 1st TSC drafted a memo granting access to all warehouses collocated with CF/A&A/BPC sites. As of November 28, 2016, CJTF‑OIR reported that the TF Spartan logistics A&A teams had access to warehouses at Taji National Depot. An implementation status request is scheduled for June 2017. In addition to Recommendation 3, this report contained 9 other recommendations. Of those 10 recommendations, 7 are closed and 3 are resolved. The DoD OIG anticipates receipt of a status update from U.S. Central Command in July 2017.

Information Required to Close the Recommendation: The DoD OIG will close Recommendation 3 after we receive documentation to verify the development of a plan that enables U.S. and Coalition access to the Iraqi Army warehouses at Taji National Depot and other supply depot sites. Specifically, we need to confirm that U.S. and Coalition forces have gain access to the Iraqi warehouses at Taji National Depot.

Report No. DODIG‑2016‑044, “U.S. Transportation Command Needs Further Improvements to Address Performance Concerns Over the Global Privately Owned Vehicle Contract III,” February 3, 2016

Management Challenge: Enabling Effective Acquisition and Contract Management DoD Functional Area: Contractor Oversight

Objective: The DoD OIG conducted this audit in response to a congressional request concerning the U.S. Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) Global Privately Owned Vehicle Contract (GPC) III (HTC711‑14‑D‑R025). The objective of the audit was to determine whether USTRANSCOM contracting personnel incorporated adequate controls to properly monitor contractor performance and to address performance concerns on the GPC III. The DoD OIG determined Finding: The DoD OIG determined that, although USTRANSCOM and the that, although USTRANSCOM and the contractor contractor have made progress in addressing performance concerns, the have made progress in USTRANSCOM contracting staff and Surface Deployment and Distribution addressing performance Command (SDDC) management did not implement adequate controls to ensure concerns, the USTRANSCOM proper contract oversight and address performance concerns. Specifically, contracting staff and Surface the contracting officer representative certified invoices that did not include Deployment and Distribution unit prices or the total billable amount. This occurred because USTRANSCOM Command management contracting staff and SDDC finance personnel approved an improper invoice did not implement adequate controls to process. As result, SDDC Finance personnel paid $162 million in potentially ensure proper contract improper payments. Additionally, up to $5 million of the $162 million potential oversight and address improper payments were overpayments related to 27,283 late delivery payments performance concerns. for which USTRANSCOM may hold the contractor accountable.

Recommendation 1.e: The DoD OIG recommended that the Director, U.S. Transportation Command Acquisition, take appropriate action to ensure that all overpayments were recouped.

Recommendation 2.c: The DoD OIG recommended that the Commander, Surface Deployment and Distribution Command review all invoices that were not prepared in accordance with the FAR and DoD regulations to verify if the invoices and payment amounts were accurate and if performance met contract requirements.

CHAPTER 1

Recommendation 2.d: The DoD OIG recommended that the Commander, Surface Deployment and Distribution Command, take appropriate action to ensure that all overpayments were recouped.

Why these Recommendations are Important: USTRANSCOM could recover $162 million in potential improper payments.

Management Response to the Recommendations: The Deputy Commander, USTRANSCOM, responding for the Director, USTRANSCOM Acquisition, agreed, stating that the contracting officer was in the process of recouping the overpayments. Also, the Deputy Commander, USTRANSCOM, responding for the Commander, SDDC, agreed, stating that SDDC would complete the review of all invoices by February 28, 2016, and had already identified and collected numerous overpayments and was working with the contracting officer to recoup all overpayments related to the late deliveries.

Potential Monetary Benefits: The $162 million is derived from USTRANSCOM’s acceptance of invalid invoices and lack of payment certification that violated contractual requirements, potentially violated statutory (legal) requirements, and resulted in the $162 million of potential improper payments. The $5 million overpayment is derived from USTRANSCOM’s estimate on how much the contractor owes the DoD as penalties for missing the required delivery date. The DoD OIG determined that USTRANSCOM had not held the contractor financially accountable for the vehicles delivered past their delivery date. Penalties amounts ranged from $30 to $210 per vehicle; however, USTRANSCOM had not recouped the money for 27,283 vehicles delivered late.

Implementation Status: On September 22, 2016, USTRANSCOM reported that, based on analysis of May 2014 through November 2014 shipment data by the Government and the contractor, a settlement in the amount of $2.4 million was reached on May 12, 2016, as penalties for missing the required delivery date.

CHAPTER 1

The refund receivable for this amount is posted in the SDDC G‑8’s accounting system, and the SDDC G‑8 has initiated offsetting payments due to the contractor. For the December 2014 through September 2015 deliveries, USTRANSCOM performed a preliminary analysis and determined $842,250 in potential penalties to be recouped from the contractor. For the October 2015 through March 2016 deliveries, USTRANSCOM has issued monthly demand letters totaling $12,960 and SDDC G‑8 has completed offsets accordingly. The contracting officer will continue to issue demand letters for missed Required Delivery Dates (RDD) in accordance with the contract. The remaining $157 million in potential improper payments are questioned costs because the invoices submitted by the contractor for the contracting officer representative’s approval did not contain the necessary elements of a proper invoice, violating the Federal Acquisition Regulation, DoD Financial Management Regulation, and Performance Work Statement requirements. The SDDC’s review of monthly fixed cost and transportation invoices from May 2014 through September 2016 found no improper payments that were attributable to the current entitlement process; however, their review of monthly storage invoices is still ongoing. On February 8, 2017, the DoD OIG contacted USTRANSCOM and requested a status update on actions taken toward reviewing the remaining $157 million in potential improper payments. As of March 31, 2017, we have not received a management response to our followup inquiry. In addition to Recommendations 1.e, 2.c and 2.d, this report contained 7 other recommendations. Of those 10 recommendations, 7 are closed and 3 are resolved.

Information Required to Close the Recommendations: The DoD OIG will close Recommendations 1.e, 2.c, and 2.d once the Director, USTRANSCOM Acquisition, completes appropriate actions to ensure that all overpayments are recouped and provides sufficient supporting documentation to substantiate any recoveries.

Report No. DODIG‑2016‑075, “Evaluation of the Air Force Office of Special Investigations’ Conduct of Internet‑Based Operations and Investigations,” April 25, 2016 (Full Report is For Official Use Only)

Management Challenge: Ensuring Ethical Conduct DoD Functional Area: Acquisition Program

Objective: The objective of this evaluation was to evaluate the Air Force Office of Special Investigations’ (AFOSI) conduct of internet‑based operations and investigations. For this evaluation, internet‑based operations and investigations are: a) investigations involving the peer‑to‑peer (P2P) transfer of computer files containing child pornography, and b) investigations concerning the use of the internet for solicitation of a minor (under the age of consent) for sexual purposes. The DoD OIG evaluated the procedures used to initiate and participate in internet‑based operations and investigations with Federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies’ internet crimes task forces. Specifically, the DoD OIG focused on whether AFOSI had adequate policy and guidance governing internet‑based operations and investigations and policies and procedures for its special agents’ participation in operations such as Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC).

Air Force Office of Special Finding: AFOSI lacked specific policy addressing its special agents’ roles during Investigations lacked ICAC operations, which contributed to violations of the provisions in DoD specific policy addressing Directive 5525.5, “DoD Cooperation with Civilian Law Enforcement Officials,” its special agents’ roles and its revised version, DoD Instruction 3025.21, “Defense Support of Civilian during ICAC operations, Law Enforcement Agencies.” These violations were the result of AFOSI special which contributed to violations of the provisions agents participating in prohibited investigative activities with civilian law in DoD Directive 5525.5, enforcement agencies before establishing a reasonable likelihood of a subject’s and its revised version, military affiliation. During the course of the evaluation, AFOSI published DoD Instruction 3025.21. investigative policy, which incorporated the reasonable likelihood standard and provided guidance and clarity regarding ICAC operations. In addition, DoD Instruction 3025.21 had not been updated to include the reasonable likelihood standard articulated in United States v. Dreyer, 767 F.3d 826 (9th Cir. 2014). Dreyer established a standard requiring a reasonable likelihood of a subject’s military affiliation before Military Criminal Investigative Organizations (MCIOs) conduct investigative activities.

CHAPTER 1

Recommendation 1: The DoD OIG recommended that the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy clarify DoD Instruction 3025.21, “Defense Support of Civilian Law Enforcement Agencies,” Enclosure 3, “Participation of DoD Personnel in Civilian Law Enforcement Activities,” to reflect the holding in United States v. Dreyer, 767 F.3d 826, affirmed in relevant part by 2015 U.S. App. LEXIS 19226 (9th Cir., en banc).

Why the Recommendation is Important: The revised DoD policy will incorporate Federal law that requires a reasonable likelihood of a subject’s military affiliation before MCIOs conduct investigative activities, preventing MCIOs from participating in prohibited investigative activities.

Management Response to the Recommendation: The Director, Defense Support of Civil Authorities, responding for the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy, agreed to clarify DoDI 3025.21, Enclosure 3, in calendar year 2017 to reflect the holding in Dreyer.

Implementation Status: On December 15, 2016, the Director, Defense Support of Civil Authorities, indicated his office would update DoD Instruction 3025.21 after the DoD OIG adds clarification in DoD Instruction 5505.03, “Initiation of Investigations by Defense Criminal Investigative Organizations” so that the update of DoD Instruction 3025.21 would be consistent with the DoD OIG issuance. DoD Instruction 5505.03 was revised on February 13, 2017, and was forwarded to the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy to facilitate their revision of DoD Instruction 3025.21. An implementation status request is scheduled for July 2017.

Information Required to Close the Recommendation: The DoD OIG will close Recommendation 1 after the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy completes the revision of DoD Instruction 3025.21 and we review and verify that the revised DoD Instruction 3025.21 reflects the holding in United States v.

Report No. DODIG‑2016‑078, “Evaluation of DoD Biological Safety and Security Implementation,” April 27, 2016

Management Challenge: Countering Global Strategic Challenges DoD Functional Area: Other

Objective: The objectives of this project were to 1) assess the uniform application of biosafety and biosecurity policy and directives, plans, orders, and guidance across DoD Component laboratories that were conducting research using biological select agents and toxins (BSAT), and 2) evaluate DoD biological safety and security oversight at laboratories; DoD Component biological safety and security compliance with Federal, DoD, and Service policy; and DoD and Component actions on recommendations from previous Government Accountability Office, Defense Science Board, and Defense Health Board reports.

The DoD OIG determined Finding: The DoD OIG determined that the DoD did not maintain biosafety and that the DoD did not biosecurity program management, oversight, and inspections of BSAT laboratories maintain biosafety and in accordance with the applicable Executive Order, Federal regulations, and biosecurity program DoD instructions. This occurred because there was no single DoD coordinating management, oversight, function to track and correct deficiencies and to ensure that Services’ BSAT and inspections of BSAT laboratories in laboratory management, oversight, and inspections included all mandatory accordance with the guidance and technical requirements. As a result, Service BSAT laboratory applicable Executive Order, management, oversight, and inspections failed to identify significant deficiencies Federal regulations, and and vulnerabilities, and DoD management did not implement needed corrective DoD instructions. actions to eliminate possible risks to public health and safety.

Recommendation 1.a: The DoD OIG recommended that the Deputy Secretary of Defense appoint a single Executive Agent responsible for biosafety and biosecurity.

Recommendation 1.b: The DoD OIG recommended that the Deputy Secretary of Defense direct the Executive Agent for Biosafety and Biosecurity to:

1) conduct standardized oversight and inspections in accordance with applicable Federal regulations of DoD BSAT laboratories; 2) track all internal and external inspection results and report status of all findings, recommendations, and actions taken to address deficiencies to the appropriate DoD management level;

CHAPTER 1

3) develop and implement training for BSAT laboratory inspectors and subject matter expert inspection team augmentees; and 4) ensure that all personnel included in inspection teams have sufficient scientific expertise and experience.

Why these Recommendations are Important: Security and safety are paramount at DoD laboratories that work with and store extremely dangerous biological agents and toxins.

Management Response to the Recommendations: The Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics, responding for the Deputy Secretary of Defense, agreed. He noted that the Secretary of the Army was designated as the Executive Agent for the Department of Defense BSAT Biosafety Program in a July 23, 2015, memorandum and stated that the Executive Agent authority would be expanded to oversee both the biosafety and biosecurity programs for the DoD. The Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics has been directed to draft and coordinate a DoD Directive that establishes policy and designates and defines the role of the Secretary of the Army as the DoD Executive Agent for the DoD BSAT Biosafety and Biosecurity Program.

Implementation Status: On March 23, 2017, the DoD OIG contacted the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics and requested a status update on actions taken toward developing and publishing the proposed DoD Directive. As of March 31, 2017, we have not received a management response to our followup inquiry. In addition to Recommendations 1.a and 1.b(1)‑(4), this report contained 8 other recommendations. All 13 recommendations are resolved.

Information Required to Close the Recommendations: The DoD OIG will close Recommendations 1.a and 1.b(1)‑(4) once the proposed DoD Directive is provided and we verify that it outlines the roles and responsibilities of the DoD Executive Agent for the DoD BSAT Biosafety and Biosecurity Program.

Report No. DODIG‑2016‑082, “DoD Needs to Require Performance of Software Assurance Countermeasures During Major Weapon System Acquisitions,” April 29, 2016 (Full Report is For Official Use Only)

Management Challenge: Increasing Cyber Security and Cyber Capabilities DoD Functional Area: Information Technology Resources

Objective: The objective of this audit was to determine whether critical software components for a selected major acquisition program received the required testing to reduce the risk of vulnerabilities in operational software. Specifically, the DoD OIG evaluated software used in the Navy’s Littoral Combat Ship–Mission Modules program. The Littoral Combat Ship–Mission Modules program was established to develop a set of focused mission packages and common components that can be installed on any variant of the Littoral Combat Ship seaframe.

Finding: The DoD OIG determined the Program officials for the Navy Littoral The DoD OIG determined Combat Ship–Mission Modules did not ensure that all software assurance the Program officials for countermeasures in the Program Protection Plan were fully performed while the Navy Littoral Combat Ship–Mission Modules developing critical software. This occurred because DoD policy did not require did not ensure that all that all software assurance countermeasures detailed in the Program Protection software assurance Plan be performed. In addition, the DoD did not issue implementing procedures countermeasures in the to ensure software assurance countermeasures were applied consistently across Program Protection Plan all major acquisition programs. As a result, there is an increased risk that critical were fully performed while software contains vulnerabilities that, if exploited, could result in mission failure. developing critical software.

Recommendation 1.a: The DoD OIG recommended that the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics develop and issue policy to require program offices to implement the applicable software assurance countermeasures in approved Program Protection Plans throughout the lifecycle of DoD programs.

Recommendation 1.b: The DoD OIG recommended that the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics develop and issue procedures to guide the consistent application of software assurance countermeasures in approved Program Protection Plans.

CHAPTER 1

Why these Recommendations are Important: Nearly all modern technology systems depend on software to perform their functions. The DoD’s increasing reliance on software presents opportunities for adversaries to gain unauthorized access to data, alter data, disrupt operations, or interrupt communications by inserting malicious code or otherwise corrupting components within DoD systems. According to DoD Software Assurance Community of Practice, more than 80 percent of cybersecurity exploits take advantage of weak or vulnerable software in systems, networks, and major database programs. Therefore, defense programs must conduct early software assurance planning and testing to counter adversarial threats that target software.

Management Response to the Recommendations: The Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering, stated that the Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Systems Engineering (DASD[SE]) developed a proposed modification to DoD Instruction 5000.02 to specifically mention that implementation of software assurance detection and analysis tools is required and to specify that remediation of software vulnerabilities be addressed in Program Protection Plans, included in contract requirements, and verified through continued use of such tools and testing. The DASD(SE) is also revising Program Protection Plans guidance as part of an update to the Defense Acquisition Guidebook. The guidance will assist with embedding software assurance in systems engineering processes for software development and testing.

Implementation Status: Initial followup request to the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics for an implementation status request is scheduled for June 2017. The DoD OIG anticipates receipt of a status update on Recommendations 1.a and 1.b from the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics in July 2017.

Information Required to Close the Recommendations: The DoD OIG will close Recommendations 1.a and 1.b after we receive and verify that the DoD guidance issued directs the implementation of applicable software assurance countermeasures in Program Protection Plans and the consistent application of software assurance countermeasures.

Report No. DODIG‑2016‑087, “Air Force Civil Engineer Center Management of Energy Savings Performance Contracts Needs Improvement,” May 4, 2016

Management Challenge: Protecting Key Defense Infrastructure DoD Functional Area: Contractor Oversight

Objective: The objective of this audit was to determine whether the Air Force is effectively managing energy savings performance contracts (ESPCs). ESPCs provide a way for the private sector to finance Federal energy‑savings projects. Through ESPCs, an energy services contractor designs, finances, acquires, installs, and maintains energy‑saving equipment and systems for a Federal agency.

Finding: The DoD OIG determined that the Air Force Civil Engineer Center The DoD OIG determined (AFCEC) did not centrally or effectively manage 52 existing ESPCs, valued at that the Air Force Civil $849 million. Specifically, AFCEC officials did not track project status for existing Engineer Center did not ESPC projects. AFCEC did not maintain contract and task order number used centrally or effectively manage 52 existing ESPCs, for 12 of the 52 projects, valued at $180.7 million. In addition, AFCEC could valued at $849 million. not determine whether 12 of the 52 projects, valued at $58.6 million, which had contract terms that appeared to have ended in FY 2014 or earlier, were in fact completed or terminated through a buyout. This occurred because AFCEC officials:

• considered program management of existing ESPC task orders to be an installation responsibility and training to be a Department of Energy (DOE) responsibility, • did not believe AFCEC could centrally manage ESPC projects with existing resources, and • focused on meeting Air Force goals to develop additional ESPC projects rather than managing existing projects.

As a result, Air Force officials do not know whether the 52 existing ESPC projects achieved contractor‑guaranteed energy savings, which were to be the basis of payments to the project contractors.

CHAPTER 1

Recommendation 1.b: The DoD OIG recommended that the Director, AFCEC, conduct a review of existing electronic data management systems to determine if there is a system capable of tracking energy savings and project status.

Why the Recommendation is Important: AFCEC needs to improve its basic program and contract management functions for its existing $849 million ESPC portfolio. Until AFCEC develops and implements an electronic data management system, it will continue to be unable to perform basic contract administration and program management activities for the ESPC portfolio. In addition, AFCEC will continue to be unable to determine whether contractor‑claimed energy savings in the ESPC portfolio was validated by the Air Force and ensure that payments made to contractors are accurate.

Management Response to the Recommendation: The Director, AFCEC, agreed with the recommendation, stating that the AFCEC will establish and maintain an energy‑savings performance‑contract mechanism to track energy savings and project status. The AFCEC will also review the availability of existing data management systems to track energy savings and ESPC project status. The estimated completion date to review existing data management systems was November 30, 2016.

Implementation Status: In November 2016, the DoD OIG contacted the Air Force and requested a status update on actions taken toward implementing Recommendation 1.b. As of March 31, 2017, we have not received a management response to our followup inquiry. In addition to Recommendation 1.b, this report contained 8 other recommendations. All 9 recommendations are resolved.

Information Required to Close the Recommendation: The DoD OIG will close Recommendation 1.b once the AFCEC establishes and maintains an electronic data management system to track energy savings and ESPC project status. In addition, the DoD OIG anticipates performing either a followup project specific to the Air Force’s implementation of the recommendations outlined in Report Nos. DODIG‑2016‑087 and DODIG‑2015‑138 or as a part of a summary report on the DoD’s administration of ESPCs.

Report No. DODIG‑2016‑118, “Army Justified Initial Production Plan for the Paladin Integrated Management Program but Has Not Resolved Two Vehicle Performance Deficiencies,” August 5, 2016 (Full Report is For Official Use Only)

Management Challenge: Developing Full Spectrum Total Force Capabilities, Enabling Effective Acquisition and Contract Management DoD Functional Area: Acquisition Program

Objective: The objective of this audit was to determine whether the Army effectively managed the Paladin Integrated Management (PIM) program during the production and deployment phase. The Army’s PIM program includes ammunition carriers and projectile‑firing armored vehicles, called howitzers, for use in ground combat. Specifically, the DoD OIG evaluated whether program officials justified the low‑rate initial production plan and whether test plans and results adequately prepared the program for full‑rate production. During full‑rate production, the Army plans to complete PIM vehicle production.

Finding: The DoD OIG determined that the PIM program officials initiated The DoD OIG determined system fixes to address seven of the nine performance deficiencies identified that the PIM program by the test community during the system development phase. PIM program officials initiated system officials also updated test plans to evaluate vehicle performance before full‑rate fixes to address seven of the nine performance production. However, Army Fires Center of Excellence, which developed PIM deficiencies identified by the program operational requirements, and PIM program officials continued to test community during the address test community recommendations for deficiencies in the automatic system development phase. fire extinguisher system (AFES). Army officials did not fully address two test community recommendations because PIM program officials were exploring methods to fix the deficiency in the AFES in howitzer crew compartments after initially disagreeing with the test community recommendation. As a result, the DoD OIG concluded that the PIM program officials may incur costly vehicle retrofits to address the deficiency in the AFES if not adequately addressed before full‑rate production.

CHAPTER 1

Recommendation 2: The DoD OIG recommended that the Program Executive Officer, Ground Combat Systems, evaluate and fix the deficiency in the AFES in howitzer crew compartments before deploying the first vehicles to minimize fire risk to soldiers and reduce retrofit costs.

Why the Recommendation is Important: By fixing the AFES defect before deploying PIM vehicles, the Army can realize cost savings by avoiding costly retrofits, and better assure soldier safety in the event of a fire or explosion.

Management Response to the Recommendation: The Deputy Program Executive Officer, Ground Combat System, responding for the Program Executive Officer, stated that the Program Manager, Armored Fighting Vehicles (PM AFV), considered three courses of action, plus the cost and schedule impacts of delaying or not delaying the deployment of the PIM program vehicle for each course of action. As of August 26, 2016, the PM AFV planned to deploy the PIM program vehicle as scheduled. The PM also planned to upgrade the automatic fire extinguisher system and incorporate the upgrade into future production and upgraded vehicles.

Implementation Status: In February 2017, the DoD OIG requested documentation showing the cost and schedule impact of each course of action. As of March 31, 2017, the Army has not provided a response to our followup inquiry. In addition to Recommendation 2, this report contained 1 other recommendation and both recommendations are resolved.

Information Required to Close the Recommendation: The DoD OIG will close Recommendation 2 after the Deputy Program Executive Officer, Ground Combat System, provides documentation showing the cost and schedule impact of each course of action and we review and determine whether the estimated cost and scheduled impacts of each course of action was reasonable.

Management Challenge: Enabling Effective Acquisition and Contract Management DoD Functional Area: Acquisition Program

Objective: The objective of this audit was to determine the impact of schedule delays on the initial production decision for the XM25 program from March 2014 to June 2016. Additionally, the DoD OIG determined whether the Army appropriately assessed the affordability of the XM25 program and implemented Better Buying Power initiatives.

Army G‑3/5/7 and Army G‑8 Finding: The initial production decision for the XM25 has been delayed since officials removed FY 2015 the DoD OIG issued the last report (Report No. DODIG-2014-048) on the XM25 and FY 2016 XM25 in March 2014. Specifically, Army G‑3/5/7 and Army G‑8 officials removed procurement funding from FY 2015 and FY 2016 XM25 procurement funding from the President’s Budget, the President’s Budget, which extended engineering which extended engineering and manufacturing development by 2 years. and manufacturing Additionally, Army G‑3/5/7 officials contributed to the initial production development by 2 years. decision delay by placing a hold on the XM25 capability production document. These conditions occurred because the XM25 malfunctioned during a forward operational assessment in 2013 and Army officials did not perform Government testing in 2013.

(FOUO) When Army officials did perform Government testing in 2014,

. Therefore, the capability production document remained on hold to allow for additional testing, which further delayed the initial production decision. As a result of the weapon malfunction and , Army officials extended the development effort, and research, development, test, and evaluation (RDT&E) costs increased from between February 2013 and March increase.

CHAPTER 1

Recommendation A.1.a: The DoD OIG recommended that the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics, and Technology (ASA[ALT]) determine whether to proceed with the XM25 program and the initial production decision after Government testing is completed in the fall of 2016. Specifically, if the test results show that the XM25 meets all of its primary and secondary performance requirements, the milestone decision authority should immediately schedule an initial production decision. If the test results show that the weapon does not meet all of its primary and secondary requirements, the program should be canceled.

(FOUO) Why the Recommendation is Important:

Management Response to the Recommendation: The Deputy for Acquisition and System Management, responding for the ASA(ALT), agreed, stating that as the Milestone Decision Authority, the ASA(ALT) will review all information available and decide whether to proceed with or terminate the XM25 program. The ASA(ALT), with the Chief of Staff of the Army, continues to support the completion of pre‑production qualification testing that should lead to an initial production decision. When the testing is completed, the ASA(ALT) will review test results and determine whether to proceed into initial production. If a decision is made to terminate the XM25 program, the ASA(ALT) will provide final direction and the Army will follow the policy and guidance in Army Regulation 70‑1 and Army Pamphlet 70‑3, with regard to possible termination of the XM25 program.

CHAPTER 1

(FOUO) Potential Monetary Benefits: The XM25 program continues to experience schedule delays, cost increases, and performance problems since the program entered the engineering and manufacturing development (EMD) phase in December 2010. Specifically, the XM25 program has experienced a total initial production decision delay of 5 years, from first quarter FY 2012 to planned first quarter FY 2017. Total estimated life‑cycle costs have increased from to between February 2013 and March 2016—a increase. Additionally, as of June 2016, the XM25 has

As a result of continued schedule delays, cost increases, and performance problems, the XM25 MDA should determine whether to cancel the program or immediately schedule an initial production decision if the FY 2016 Government test results demonstrate that the XM25 can meet its primary and secondary performance requirements. If the MDA cancels the XM25 program, in funds can be put to better use.

Implementation Status: The initial followup request to the ASA(ALT) is scheduled for June 2017. In addition to Recommendation A.1.a, this report contained 8 other recommendations. All 9 recommendations are resolved. The DoD OIG anticipates receiving a final Army decision on whether to terminate the XM25 program by July 2017.

Information Required to Close the Recommendation: The DoD OIG will close Recommendation A.1.a after we receive documentation and verify the Army’s determination to proceed with the XM25 program or cancel the program after the completion of Government testing.

Report No. DODIG‑2017‑004, “Summary Report–Inspections of DoD Facilities and Military Housing and Audits of Base Operations and Support Services Contracts,” October 14, 2016

Management Challenge: Building and Maintaining Force Readiness DoD Functional Area: Construction & Installation Support

Objective: The objective of this audit was to identify common issues and broader findings by summarizing and analyzing previous DoD OIG health and safety inspections of DoD‑occupied facilities and military housing. The DoD OIG also reviewed audit reports related to Base Operations and Support Services (BOSS) contracts and facilities maintenance.

Finding: The DoD OIG issued six reports from July 2013 to July 2016 related to The DoD OIG issued health and safety inspections of DoD facilities at various locations around the six reports from July 2013 to world, documenting 3,783 deficiencies in electrical system safety, fire protection July 2016 related to health and safety inspections of systems, and environmental health and safety. During these inspections, the DoD facilities at various DoD OIG issued 12 notices of concern (NOCs), detailing 319 critical deficiencies locations around the requiring immediate action at 24 of the 36 installations inspected. world, documenting 3,783 deficiencies in The six inspection reports identified systemic weaknesses in the inspection and electrical system safety, maintenance of facilities. All six inspection reports recommended that inspection fire protection systems, and maintenance programs for facilities be reviewed and improvements be made, and environmental health including the need to ensure that sufficient qualified resources are available and safety. to execute these programs. Additional recommendations addressed the need to perform periodic inspections and maintenance of DoD facilities and military housing to ensure compliance with health and safety requirements.

The deficiencies that the DoD OIG identified in the previous inspections and the lack of consistent inspections and maintenance programs resulted in DoD personnel and military families being exposed to health and safety hazards at installations around the world.

Recommendation A.1: The DoD OIG recommended that the Secretaries of the Military Departments annually perform at least two comprehensive, independent inspections of installations. The purpose of these inspections is to verify compliance with all applicable health and safety requirements.

Report No. DODIG‑2017‑029, “Army National Guard Companies Have Not Developed Effective Training Programs to Attain or Sustain Mission Essential Task Proficiency,” December 5, 2016 (Full Report is Classified)

Management Challenge: Developing Full Spectrum Total Force Capabilities DoD Functional Area: Logistics

Objective: The objective of this audit was to determine whether Army National Guard units had the ability to perform their mission essential tasks (METs). A MET is a task that a unit must perform based on their design, equipment, manning, and organization. Specifically, the DoD OIG evaluated the Army National Guard’s training proficiency at the company and cavalry troop level. The DoD OIG review focused on determining whether Army National Guard training programs were sufficient to ensure units could attain and sustain MET task proficiency.

Finding: The DoD OIG determined that unit commanders did not develop The DoD OIG determined effective training programs to ensure their units attained or sustained MET that unit commanders proficiency. Specifically, the commanders did not: did not develop effective training programs to ensure • properly develop METs, training priorities, and plans; their units attained or sustained MET proficiency. • manage personnel resources for sustaining training proficiency; • effectively implement training plans and events; and • continually or adequately assess MET proficiency.

The training programs were not effective because the Army and National Guard Bureau did not provide clear, consistent guidance for managing unit training. In addition, commanders did not implement effective inspection programs to provide oversight of collective training and ensure that units complied with training management policies.

Recommendation 1: The DoD OIG recommended that the Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations and Plans, Department of the Army, ensure that units implement standardized METs at the company level, establish suspense dates for implementation, and monitor unit progress toward completion.

CHAPTER 1

Why the Recommendation is Important: Army units of the same type and with the same mission should train to the same standard. If this does not occur, units cannot ensure that other similar type units will provide adequate support when needed.

Management Response to the Recommendation: The Secretary of the Army, responding for the Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations and Plans, Department of the Army, agreed with the recommendation and stated that the Army has completed development of standard mission essential task lists for 95 percent of operating force units down through the company level. Standard mission essential task lists are now available to units through the Army Training Network website. Also, the second quarter FY 2017 scheduled revision of Army Regulation 350‑1, “Army Training and Leader Development,” will further reinforce guidance focusing on training on standard mission essential task lists. Finally, the Secretary stated that the Army will continue to integrate standard evaluation criteria into all training and evaluation outlines published in the web‑based Combined Arms Training Strategy with an expected completion by the fourth quarter FY 2017.

Implementation Status: Initial followup request to the Army for an implementation status update is scheduled for June 2017. In addition to Recommendation 1, this report contained 3 other recommendations. All 4 recommendations are resolved. The DoD OIG anticipates receipt of a status update from the Army in July 2017.

Information Required to Close the Recommendation: The DoD OIG will close Recommendation 1 after we receive and verify the Army’s actions to publish guidance, increase training management proficiency, and renew focus of organizational inspection programs on unit‑level training management.

Report No. DODIG‑2017‑033, “Assessment of U.S. and Coalition Efforts to Train, Advise, Assist, and Equip the Kurdish Security Forces in Iraq,” December 16, 2016

Management Challenge: Countering the Terrorist Threat DoD Functional Area: Logistics

Objective: The objective of this project was to assess U.S. and Coalition efforts to train, advise, assist, and equip the Kurdish Security Forces (KSF) to conduct operations against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL).

Finding: U.S. officials did not have a comprehensive written plan to sustain U.S. officials did not have a the two brigade equipment sets the United States intended to provide the comprehensive written plan to sustain the two brigade KSF. An official within the Office of Security Cooperation–Iraq (OSC‑I) reported equipment sets the that this occurred because the Combined Joint Forces Land Component United States intended 9 Command–Iraq did not use the Total Package Approach during the development to provide the Kurdish of the brigade set requirements, omitting the sustainment support from the Security Forces requirements planning.

Recommendation B.1: The DoD OIG recommended that the Commander, U.S. Central Command, determine the requirements to sustain the functioning of the KSF brigade equipment sets and issue a written sustainment plan that includes those requirements.

Why the Recommendation is Important: Unless the DoD plans for the sustainment requirements for the brigade equipment sets, the DoD may have to spend more U.S. money in the future for unnecessary repairs or replacement of this equipment.

9 A Total Package Approach (TPA) ensures that the requesting authority considers and addresses follow-on support and effective sustainability (of the defense articles being provided during the planning phase of a Building Partner Capacity (BPC) case), recognizing that BPC programs are time‑limited by their appropriations. Adequate sustainment support may require spares (spare parts), additional training, consumables, and possibly contractor logistics support that exceed BPC program funding timelines.

CHAPTER 1

Management Response to the Recommendation: The Executive Director, responding for the Commander, U.S. Central Command, agreed, stating that the OSC‑I is developing cases with a Total Package Approach that will address current and future capability gaps. The OSC‑I will focus Credit Facility 2017 (and beyond) on the development of a capable, cost effective, and sustainable Ministry of Peshmerga (MoP). The Peshmerga Organizational and Operationa (O&O) Concept includes the plan to develop a sustainment brigade, military readiness infrastructure, and investments into the logistics supply requirements of the Peshmerga Modernized Division (PMD) concept. The field command should remain in coordination with the OSC‑I in supporting their actions to maintain KSF equipment readiness.

Implementation Status: Initial followup request to U.S. Central Command for an implementation status update is scheduled for July 2017. In addition to Recommendation B.1, this report contained 5 other recommendations. All 6 recommendations are resolved. The DoD OIG anticipates receipt of a status update from U.S. Central Command in August 2017.

Information Required to Close the Recommendation: The DoD OIG will close Recommendation B.1 after we receive, review, and verify that the sustainment plan developed includes the requirements to sustain the readiness of the KSF brigade equipment sets.

CHAPTER 2 Reports With Remaining Uncollected Potential Monetary Benefits DoD OIG reports also provide information on the estimated potential monetary benefits (financial savings) that can be achieved based on DoD management implementation of report recommendations. Potential monetary benefits can be classified as questioned costs or funds put to better use.

Questioned costs are costs that are questioned because of an alleged violation of a provision of a law, regulation, contract, grant, cooperative agreement, or other agreements or documents governing the expenditure of funds or reimbursement of costs. Questioned costs may also be costs that are not supported by adequate documentation at the time of the DoD OIG review, or unnecessary or unreasonable expenditure of funds for an intended purpose. For example, in Report No. DODIG‑2013‑084, the DoD OIG determined that the Marine Corps could not support the need to procure 200 CH‑53K aircraft. As a result, the Marine Corps risked spending up to $5 billion in procurement funding and $17.2 billion in operating and support funding over the program’s life for 44 additional aircraft that may not be needed to support future Marine Corps requirements.

CHAPTER 2

Funds put to better use are funds that could be used more efficiently if management takes action to implement and complete the recommendations in the report, such as reducing outlays, de‑obligating funds from programs or operations, implementing improvements to operations, or taking actions that will result in avoiding costs. For example, in Report No. DODIG‑2017‑045, the DoD OIG determined that U.S. Army Medical Command officials missed opportunities to collect up to $40 million for Army military treatment facilities to fund administrative, operating, and equipment costs; readiness training; and trauma consortium activities. This occurred because U.S. Army Medical Command officials did not have procedures in place to review the transferred accounts or to return potentially collectible accounts to the military treatment facility uniform business offices to continue collection efforts.

DoD OIG staff calculates projected potential monetary benefits during the performance of an audit and includes them as part of a recommendation when providing the report to DoD management for comments. As of March 31, 2017, there were 58 open recommendations from 40 DoD OIG reports, with associated potential monetary benefits of $33.6 billion. This chapter lists the 40 final reports, the 58 open recommendations, and the associated potential monetary benefits.

The vast majority of the potential monetary benefits associated with the 58 open recommendations resulted from reports related to acquisition and contracting management.

For example, if DoD management does not provide comments, or comments to the final report do not fully address the recommendations, the DoD OIG initiates the resolution process, which can result in elevation of the recommendation through multiple levels of management, as necessary.

The following describe the top 10 unresolved recommendations, followed by a table listing all 47 recommendations that are unresolved.

Report No. DODIG‑2012‑098, “Controls Governing the Procurement Automated Contract Evaluation System Need Improvement,” June 5, 2012 (Full Report is For Official Use Only)

Management Challenge: Enabling Effective Acquisition and Contract Management, Improving Financial Management DoD Functional Area: Logistics, Acquisition Program

Objective: The objectives of this audit were to determine whether Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Supply Centers uniformly applied the controls and rules governing Procurement Automated Contract Evaluation (PACE) awards, whether the DLA had a process to validate that prices were fair and reasonable, and whether the DLA awarded contracts through PACE to suppliers who offered the best value.

The DLA allowed the Finding: Although DLA personnel generally applied the controls and rules PACE system, rather than governing PACE awards in a uniform manner, the DLA did not ensure that contracting officers, to PACE complied with public law. Specifically, the DLA allowed the PACE system, award fully automated rather than contracting officers, to award fully automated contracts by affixing contracts by affixing contracting officers’ contracting officers’ signatures, and violating public laws and the Federal signatures, and violating Acquisition Regulation (FAR). This occurred because DLA personnel misinterpreted public laws and the the public law and the FAR. As a result, the DLA did not ensure that the Federal Acquisition 333,304 contracts, totaling over $1.5 billion, from FY 2008 through 2010 were Regulation (FAR). properly formed and that obligations on those contracts were valid.10

10 The manner in which the contracts were formed, or attempted to be formed; which was DLA allowing the PACE System, rather than contracting officers, to affix contracting officers’ electronic signatures to fully automated PACE awards.

CHAPTER 3

Recommendation A.1: The DoD OIG recommended that the Director, Defense Logistics Agency, cease the current process of automated affixing of contracting officers’ electronic signatures to fully automated awards in the PACE system and develop an alternate method compliant with Public Law 105‑277, “Government Paperwork Elimination Act,” October 21, 1998, Public Law 106‑229, “Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act,” June 30, 2000, and the Federal Acquisition Regulation.

Why the Recommendation is Important: Electronic signature as used in the PACE process violated public law and the FAR. With no opportunity to review the contract before its award, the contracting officer cannot have approved the award, intended to sign the award, or ensured that all applicable procedures were met. The use of electronic signatures in the PACE system calls into question whether the contracts were properly formed and the recording of obligations on those contracts were valid.

Management Response to the Recommendation: The Director, DLA Acquisition, responding for the DLA Director, disagreed and stated that the report took a restrictive and unreasonable reading of the applicable statutory and FAR definitions. Based on a memorandum from the DLA’s Office of General Counsel, the Director, DLA Acquisition, stated that the DLA disagreed that the contracting officer must have specific knowledge of the content of each purchase order processed in PACE and that the contracting officer must take action to approve each purchase order before issuance.

Resolution Status: This recommendation remains unresolved. The DoD OIG continues to work with the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics (OUSD[AT&L]) and the Defense Logistics Agency to resolve the disagreement. The DoD OIG and OUSD(AT&L) plan to meet in June 2017 to further discuss actions taken and required to close the recommendation. In addition to Recommendation A.1, this report contained three other recommendations that have been closed.

Information Required to Reach an Agreement: The DoD OIG will close this recommendation when the OUSD(AT&L) implements corrective actions to ensure compliance with the public laws.

Report No. DODIG‑2013‑082, “Hotline Allegation Regarding the Failure to Take Action on Material Management and Accounting System Audit Findings,” May 29, 2013

Management Challenge: Enabling Effective Acquisition and Contract Management DoD Functional Area: Contractor Oversight

Objective: The objective of this evaluation was to determine the validity of a DoD Hotline complaint that alleged that the contracting officer at a Supervisor of Ship­building, Conversion and Repair (SUPSHIP) facility failed to take action on audit findings reported by the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA) involving a DoD contractor’s Material Management and Accounting System (MMAS).11 The complaint also alleged that DCAA management at a field audit office did not take appropriate action to protect the Government’s interests.

The DoD OIG substantiated the Finding: The DoD OIG substantiated the allegation that the SUPSHIP contracting allegation that the SUPSHIP officer did not take action on significant MMAS deficiencies reported in multiple contracting officer did not take DCAA audit reports since 1996. As a result, the Government likely paid millions action on significant MMAS of dollars in excess material inventory carrying costs and other charges, which deficiencies reported in multiple are not recoverable. In 2010, the DCAA estimated that the Government incurred DCAA audit reports since 1996. $27.7 million annually in excess inventory carrying costs on one of the deficiencies involving the failure to appropriately time‑phase material costs, as required by the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation clause 252.242‑7004, also known as Standard 2.

Standard 2 states that a DoD contractor’s MMAS must, “Ensure that costs of purchased and fabricated material charged or allocated to a contract are based on valid time‑phased requirements as impacted by minimum/economic order quantity restrictions.” The clause defines “time‑phased requirements” as material which is charged and billed to contracts in a manner consistent with the need to fulfill the production plan.

11 The Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement clause 252.242‑7004, requires DoD contractors to maintain a Material Management and Accounting System that reasonably forecasts material requirements; ensures material costs are based on valid time‑phased requirements; and has a consistent, equitable, and unbiased logic for costing of material transactions. The clause lists 10 system criteria (also known as MMAS “standards”) for determining the acceptability of an MMAS.

CHAPTER 3

On March 15, 2013, the SUPSHIP Commander entered into an agreement with the contractor concerning how the contractor must calculate master production schedule accuracy. The master production schedule accuracy rate serves as the primary measure for determining if a contractor adequately time‑phases material costs in accordance with Standard 2. The DoD OIG disagrees with the appropriateness of the agreement for two reasons. First, it allows the contractor to exclude a significant portion of materials (referred to as planning material) from the master production schedule rate calculation. Second, it allows the contractor to use a “required‑in‑yard” measurement date, which is inconsistent with the intent of Standard 2. Using the required‑in‑yard date, the measure only serves to determine if material is received according to the master productions schedule, irrespective of whether the schedule is accurate. As a result, the measure would not detect inaccuracies with the master production schedule that cause material to be received too early or too late.

Recommendation A.2.d: The DoD OIG recommended that the Commanding Officer, SUPSHIP, re‑evaluate the determination that the costs of complying with Standard 2 outweigh the benefits, and document adequate rationale for any disagreements with the DCAA auditor in accordance with DoD Instruction 7640.02, “Policy for Follow‑up on Contract Audit Reports.”

Recommendation A.2.e: The DoD OIG recommended that the Commanding Officer, SUPSHIP, in consultation with the DCAA, reassess the appropriateness of the March 15, 2013, agreement with the contractor on the master production schedule accuracy calculation.

Why these Recommendations are Important: The contractor purchases approximately $1 billion worth of material annually. If it routinely receives material far in advance of its production plan or actual need, the Government pays significant excess carrying costs, spoilage, and other unnecessary costs.

CHAPTER 3

Management Response to the Recommendations: The SUPSHIP Commander disagreed with Recommendation A.2.d. SUPSHIP maintains that the cost of complying with Standard 2 outweighs the benefits to the government. SUPSHIP has stated that, due to the nature of shipbuilding, SUPSHIP effectively instructs the contractor to purchase planning material in advance through the issuance of planning contracts. Therefore, the contractor does not have the discretion to appropriately time‑phase planning material.

The SUPSHIP Commander disagreed with recommendation A.2.e. SUPSHIP believes that the contractor appropriately measures its Master Production Schedule Accuracy (MPS) by comparing the “required‑in‑yard” date to the receipt date of the material. Therefore, SUPSHIP did not consult with the DCAA on the appropriateness of the 2013 agreement.

Resolution Status: Since the issuance of the final report, the DoD OIG has held a series of meetings with SUPSHIP, other Navy Leadership, and the DCAA in an attempt to reach consensus on the recommendations. The last meeting was held on February 10, 2016, and all parties agreed that the DCAA would perform a new audit of the contractor’s MMAS and recalculate the estimated impact of not complying with Standard 2. A new audit was considered necessary because the original DCAA audit is based on 2010 material data. The DCAA is performing the new audit and expects to issue its report by June 30, 2017. In addition to Recommendations A.2.d and A.2.e, this report contained four other recommendations that have been closed.

Information Required to Reach an Agreement: After the DCAA issues its report, the Navy will reassess the appropriateness of its current position that the costs of complying with Standard 2 outweigh the benefits to the Government. The DoD OIG will then determine the adequacy of the Navy’s actions in response to its reassessment. If necessary, the DoD OIG will start a formal resolution process to adequately resolve the recommendations.

Report No. DODIG‑2015‑138, “The Air Force Did Not Monitor the Energy Savings Performance Contract at Joint Base McGuire,” June 29, 2015

Management Challenge: Improving Financial Management, Enabling Effective Acquisition Processes and Contract Management DoD Functional Area: Contractor Oversight

Objective: The objective of this audit was to determine whether Air Force controls for monitoring contract performance were effective.

Finding: The DoD OIG determined that the Air Force controls for monitoring The DoD OIG determined the contractor’s energy savings performance contract (ESPC) performance at that the Air Force controls for monitoring Joint Base McGuire were not effective. Specifically, the contracting officer the contractor’s energy did not perform contractor surveillance, document contractor compliance savings performance with contract requirements, or validate actual contractor energy savings. The contract (ESPC) contracting officer stated this occurred because she was not aware of Air Force performance at Joint Base and Department of Energy requirements, did not have the technical expertise to McGuire were not effective. validate the actual energy savings, and had other contracting priorities.

Recommendation 1.d: The DoD OIG recommended the Commander, Joint Base McGuire, require the 87th Civil Engineering Squadron to develop a quality assurance surveillance plan (QASP) that includes procedures to survey, observe, test, sample, evaluate, and validate contractor‑reported energy savings for performance years 0 through 3 and maintenance activities.

Recommendation 2.c: The DoD OIG recommended the Commander, 87th Contracting Squadron, direct the contracting officer to review the QASP developed by program officials to determine whether the plan sufficiently addresses monitoring and documenting contractor performance.

Why these Recommendations are Important: Without a QASP for the Joint Base McGuire ESPC, the Air Force will continue to lack appropriate oversight of the $134 million contract because the requirements for the government oversight are not clearly defined for an on‑site oversight process. In addition, the lack of appropriate oversight would impact Joint Base McGuire’s ability to determine whether planned future payments of $115 million for the remaining 16 contract performance years will result in the contractor‑guaranteed energy savings.

CHAPTER 3

Management Response to the Recommendations: The Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Air Force (Environment, Safety, and Installation) disagreed that the Joint Base McGuire engineers should develop and the Joint Base McGuire contracting officer should review and implement a QASP to aid in performance of Joint Base McGuire ESPC oversight. The Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Air Force (Environment, Safety, and Installation) disagreed based on the following two points.

• The Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Air Force (Environment, Safety, and Installation) contends that for ESPCs, the QASP function is performed when the Air Force implements the measurement and verification (M&V) plan in accordance of 42 U.S.C., “Energy Savings Performance Contracts,” and Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 23.2, “Energy and Water Efficiency and Renewable Energy.” • FAR Subpart 37.102(a)(1)(3) allows for QASP to be waived by the contracting officer for utility contracts and the Air Force considers all ESPCs to be utility contracts.

Based on these two reasons, the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Air Force (Environment, Safety, and Installation) does not believe the development, review, and implementation of QASP for ESPCs are required or necessary. The Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Air Force (Environment, Safety, and Installation) contends that there is no precedent for developing a QASP for ESPCs and a QASP would be redundant to the M&V plan.

Resolution Status: The DoD OIG made several supplemental inquires to the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Air Force (Environment, Safety, and Installation) requesting that he provide any Department of Energy, DoD, or Air Force policy, procedure, or legal determination to support that an ESPC is a utility contract for purposes of FAR Subpart 37.102(a)(1)(3). On several occasions, Air Force personnel have confirmed in writing and verbally that they are not aware of any policy, procedure, or legal determination that defines an ESPC as a utility contract as defined in FAR Subpart 37.102(a)(1)(3). In each inquiry made to the Air Force, the DoD OIG explained the importance of the requirement to develop, review, and implement QASPs for ESPCs to survey, observe, test, sample, evaluate, and validate contractor‑reported savings and the monitoring

CHAPTER 3

and documenting contractor performance. However, the Air Force continues to contend that the M&V plan is sufficient to survey, observe, test, sample, evaluate, and validate contractor‑reported savings and the monitoring and documenting of contractor performance. The DoD OIG has been unable to obtain resolution with the Air Force on the need to develop, review, and implement QASPs for ESPCs. The DoD OIG has conducted at least four additional audits reviewing the administration of ESPC within the DoD (specifically, the Navy and Air Force). The results of each audit outlined similar recommendations to implement QASPs for various ESPC portfolios throughout the Department, with Command agreement. In addition, the Air Force has issued QASPs for its ESPCs portfolio awarded in 2016, establishing a clear guidance on how to perform oversight on the ESPCs. In addition to Recommendations 1.d and 2.c, this report contained 11 other recommendations. Of those 13 recommendations, 7 are closed, 4 are resolved, and 2 are unresolved.

Additional Planned Actions: The DoD OIG anticipates performing either a followup project specific to the Air Force’s implementation of the recommendations outlined in Report No. DODIG‑2015‑138 or as a part of a summary report on the DoD’s administration of ESPCs. The implementation of QASPs for ESPCs by other DoD Components will be used to illustrate the importance of developing, reviewing, and implementing QASPs as ESPC contract administration controls to survey, observe, test, sample, evaluate, and validate contractor‑reported savings and the monitoring and documenting of contractor performance.

Information Required to Reach an Agreement: Once the DoD OIG completes the anticipated followup or summary project, the audit team will submit the results to the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Air Force (Environment, Safety, and Installation). In addition, the team will request a legal determination from the Office of General Counsel, Department of Energy (Federal Energy Management Program), that ESPCs are not considered utility contracts under FAR Subpart 37.102(a)(1)(3) and that an M&V plan does not replace the QASP to survey, observe, test, sample, evaluate, and validate contractor‑reported savings and the monitoring and commenting on contractor performance. Therefore, validating that QASPs are required and necessary.

CHAPTER 3

Resolution Status: The Headquarters Air Force audit liaison admitted that as the result of an administrative oversight, they never requested comments from the 7th Air Force. Since the issuance of the final report, the audit liaison has been attempting to identify a point of contact at the 7th Air Force to address the recommendations. As of February 15, 2017, the 7th Air Force stated that the staff present at the time of the audit are no longer part of the command, and no one at the command is comfortable responding to the recommendations. In the DoD OIG’s last communication with the audit liaison, the DoD OIG reiterated that there was no requirement that they had to be present at the time of the audit in order to provide a management response to the recommendations. If the Air Force does not address this recommendation, service members may still not have sufficient quantities of equipment to protect themselves against a contaminated environment. In addition to Recommendations 3.a, 3.b, and 3.c, this report contained nine other recommendations. Of those 12 recommendations, 9 are resolved, and 3 are unresolved.

Information Required to Reach an Agreement: The recommendation was made to address an issue related to issuance and the condition of individual protective equipment. Each Service member should be issued individual protective equipment and the equipment should be maintained in working order. The DoD OIG must obtain management comments for each recommendation and agreement to implement corrective actions. If we do not receive comments from the 7th Air Force, we will elevate this recommendation to the Commander, Pacific Air Forces, for resolution.

Report No. DODIG‑2016‑002, “DoD Needs a Comprehensive Approach to Address Workplace Violence,” October 15, 2015

Management Challenge: Building and Maintaining Force Readiness DoD Functional Area: Logistics

Objective: The objective of this audit was to determine whether the DoD was effectively implementing programs to address workplace violence threats and incidents.

Finding: The DoD OIG determined that the DoD did not have a comprehensive The DoD OIG determined that the DoD did not have DoD‑wide program to address workplace violence threats and incidents. a comprehensive DoD‑wide Specifically, the DoD has not developed a workplace violence prevention and program to address response program for the entire DoD workforce (military, civilian, and contractor workplace violence threats personnel). In the absence of a comprehensive DoD‑wide workplace violence and incidents. program, the Military Services and the Defense Threat Reduction Agency used different approaches to address workplace violence. This occurred because the DoD:

• implemented the Secretary of Defense’s August 2010 final direction, while the Services and the Defense Threat Reduction Agency implemented the Fort Hood review board’s recommendations, and • did not exercise sufficient oversight to ensure that the Fort Hood and Defense Science Board (DSB) report recommendations were properly addressed and closed.

As a result, military personnel, DoD civilian employees, and DoD contractors were not equally prepared to prevent and respond to an act of workplace violence, which could jeopardize their safety during a threat or incident.

Recommendation 1.a: The DoD OIG recommended that the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Homeland Defense and Global Security review and analyze all of the Fort Hood and DSB recommendations and the concurrent internal reviews conducted by the Military Departments, Combatant Commands, and DoD Components to verify that existing policies and procedures have addressed identified gaps and deficiencies; identify systemic issues not addressed; and identify opportunities for streamlining processes and eliminating redundancies.

CHAPTER 3

Recommendation 1.b: The DoD OIG recommended that the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Homeland Defense and Global Security review and analyze all of the Fort Hood and DSB recommendations and the concurrent internal reviews conducted by the Military Departments, Combatant Commands, and DoD Components to develop and execute an implementation plan to close existing gaps and deficiencies through cross‑functional coordination with DoD Components; employ corrective action to remedy systemic issues identified; streamline processes and eliminate redundancies; and provide completion dates for any outstanding recommendations.

Why these Recommendations are Important: After the Fort Hood shooting, the DoD and the DoD Components conducted reviews on workplace violence and separately instituted guidance and training programs to address their respective review findings. We identified gaps in the guidance and training programs because the review findings were not addressed from a comprehensive and DoD ‑wide perspective. For example, the Under Secretary of Defense (Personnel and Readiness) issued guidance and developed training that pertained to DoD civilians but not military or contractor personnel. However, all three populations are at risk from a workplace violence incident.

In addition, other report recommendations cannot be initiated until this recommendation is complete. For example, one of the other recommendations states that the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Homeland Defense and Global Security should develop and execute an implementation plan to close the identified gaps and deficiencies; employ corrective action to remedy systemic issues identified; and streamline processes and eliminate redundancies. An implementation plan cannot be developed or executed until Recommendation 1.a. is completed.

Management Response to the Recommendations: On November 2015, the Acting Assistant Secretary of Defense for Homeland Defense and Global Security stated that the Mission Assurance Coordination Board reviewed the Fort Hood and DSB recommendations in September 2015 and is working to close the remaining workplace violence‑related recommendations concerning threat management unit‑like capabilities being established across the DoD and updating information on concerning behaviors that could lead to violent behavior.

CHAPTER 3

In July 2016, the Acting Assistant Secretary of Defense for Homeland Defense and Global Security stated that he had reviewed and analyzed the Fort Hood and DSB recommendations and the concurrent internal reviews. Based on that analysis, the Acting Assistant Secretary of Defense stated that he verified that existing policies and procedures addressed identified gaps and deficiencies. He added that the review and analysis also supported his efforts to identify systemic issues not addressed and opportunities for streamlining processes and eliminating redundancies.

Resolution Status: The Acting Assistant Secretary of Defense for Homeland Defense and Global Security’s response did not address all specifics of the recommendation. The Fort Hood and DSB recommendations and the concurrent internal reviews did not include contractor personnel in their scope and gaps and deficiencies still exist with respect to the entire DoD workforce. Therefore, the recommendation remains unresolved. In addition to Recommendation 1.a, this report contained 4 other recommendations. Of those 5 recommendations, 4 are unresolved and 1 is resolved.

Information Required to Reach an Agreement: The recommendations will be resolved once the Acting Assistant Secretary of Defense for Homeland Defense and Global Security indicates that he has reviewed and analyzed workplace violence policies and procedures specific to contractor personnel and identified any gaps and deficiencies. These recommendations will be closed once the Acting Assistant Secretary provides us with the existing policies and procedures that address the gaps and deficiencies identified in the Fort Hood and DSB recommendations and the concurrent internal reviews; documentation identifying how he has addressed the systemic issues and streamlined processes; and the gaps and deficiencies identified with respect to the DoD workplace violence program and contractor personnel.
