Defense Inventory: Navy's Procedures for Controlling In-Transit Items Are Not Being Followed

Contributor
Summary
This report is one in a series addressing defense inventory management as a high-risk area in the federal government because of vulnerabilities to fraud, waste, and abuse. Excess property that is in transit between the military services and disposal offices is the topic of a separate report we will issue later this year. The Navy has not effectively controlled its in-transit inventory and places enormous amounts of inventory at risk of undetected theft or misplacement. For fiscal years 1996-98, the Navy reported that it had lost over $3 billion in in-transit inventory, including some classified and sensitive items such as aircraft guided-missile launchers, military night vision devices, and communications equipment. The Navy's Inventory Control Point (NAVICP) at Philadelphia, which manages the largest portion of the Navy's inventory, reported the largest losses-$2.5 billion, or 84 percent of the Navy's in-transit losses
