Summary:

The Military Traffic Management Command is reengineering the Defense Department's personal property program. Although Congress supports DOD's reengineering efforts, it is concerned that the reengineered program could harm the moving industry, particularly small businesses. As a result, Congress directed that DOD report on small business issues before undertaking a pilot test. Because this report did not satisfactorily address congressional concerns about the impact on small businesses, Congress directed DOD to convene a military/industry working group to develop a mutually agreeable program to test pilot. The working group reached consensus on many issues, including a set of program goals, but it could not agree on the approach to take for the pilot test. Consequently, each side presented a separate proposal. This report reviews the two proposals. Specifically, GAO analyzes the extent to which each proposal met the DOD/industry goals for a reengineered personal property program.
