Subject
Summary:

For eight Army National Guard units, GAO analyzed equipment with high maintenance costs, including tanks, howitzers, and armored personnel carriers, and found that it is feasible for units that train each year at the same location to share equipment. Items not needed for the pool could be stored in a facility with controlled humidity. GAO found that the Guard could save more than $10 million annually in maintenance costs if it kept 25 percent of this equipment in a controlled humidity environment. Moreover, the Guard could save as much as $20 million each year in maintenance costs if three units at one training site and two units at another training site pooled and shared their equipment and preserved their unused equipment. However, by maximizing equipment sharing further, the Guard units could place as much as 49 percent of their equipment in storage, thereby saving about $38 million in maintenance costs the first year and $39 million in each subsequent year.
