Supply Security

Air Force Controls Need to Be Strengthened Gao ID: NSIAD-89-34 January 12, 1989

In response to a congressional request, GAO reviewed the Clark Air Base supply squadron's controls over materials during the receiving process.

GAO found that, although the squadron processed most material receipts as required, it often did not: (1) verify and timely report certain shipping discrepancies; (2) identify and report overdue material shipments; or (3) take basic physical security precautions. GAO also found that the squadron did not sufficiently separate receiving and distribution duties, thus increasing the risk of abuse.
