Subject
Summary:

Competition between public and private shipyards has been the subject of considerable debate during the past 10 years. Legislation enacted since 1985 has tried to increase competition between the two sectors for defense maintenance work and ensure that the competitions are fair to both sectors. This report assesses the results of these competitions and analyzes related issues, such as the costs included in competitive bids and factors considered in the bid evaluation process. GAO also includes background information on the Navy's public-private competition programs for surface ships and submarine repair.
