Background -- DOD and the military departments have established roles and responsibilities for senior business transformation positions, but have not retained leadership consistency -- DOD and the military departments have issued strategic or business transformation plans, but DOD has not coordinated with the military departments to align business transformation efforts -- DOD established the Defense Business Council as its principal business governance forum, but has not used the forum to effectively monitor the military departments' performance -- Conclusions. |
| Summary |
"While DOD maintains military forces with unparalleled capabilities, it continues to confront management weaknesses related to its business functions that support these forces. GAO designated DOD's approach to business transformation as high risk in 2005 because DOD had not taken steps to achieve business reform on a strategic, department-wide basis. This report (1) describes the roles and responsibilities established by DOD and the military departments for overseeing business transformation and the continuity of leadership in senior business transformation positions, (2) assesses the extent to which DOD has coordinated with the military departments to align strategic planning efforts for business transformation, and (3) evaluates the extent to which the DOD DCMO has used the Defense Business Council to effectively monitor department-wide performance. GAO reviewed documentation, including summaries from Defense Business Council meetings, and interviewed cognizant officials"--Preliminary page. |
