Summary:

GAO examined the Defense Department's (DOD) fiscal year 1993 budget request and prior years' appropriations for command, control, and communications programs. Schedule delays, program requirements and changes, and uncertainties have affected program funding requirements for fiscal year 1993 as well as fiscal year 1992 appropriations. GAO identified $987.3 million in potential reductions and rescissions. These totaled $217.3 million in Army programs, $504.5 million in Navy programs, $116.6 million in Air Force programs, and $148.9 million in Defense Agencies' programs. GAO focused on program cost, schedule, and performance issues and examined expenditure documents to see whether requests were adequately justified and whether unobligated funds from prior appropriations should be retained. GAO also evaluated budgetary implications of program changes resulting from threat changes identified by DOD.
