Contents Background -- DOD implemented BRAC 2005 recommendations to relocate selected training functions but missed some opportunities to consolidate training to increase jointness -- DOD cannot determine cost savings from implementing BRAC 2005 joint training recommendations, and it likely did not report all implementation costs -- Conclusions.
Summary "The 2005 BRAC round was the fifth round of base closures and realignments undertaken by DOD since 1988, and it was the largest, most complex, and costliest. DOD has relied on the BRAC process to reduce excess infrastructure and realign bases to meet changing force structure needs. According to the Secretary of Defense, BRAC 2005 provided opportunities to foster jointness among the military services. House Report 113-446 included a provision for GAO to review the status of BRAC 2005 recommendations to reduce infrastructure and promote opportunities for jointness. This report evaluates the extent to which DOD has (1) implemented the recommendations requiring the services to relocate select training functions to increase opportunities for jointness and (2) determined if implementing these recommendations has achieved cost savings. GAO reviewed guidance, course listings, and cost data; interviewed DOD and service officials"--Preliminary page.
