摘要

The Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) of 1993, Public Law 103-62, was designed to improve Government-wide program effectiveness, Government accountability, and, ultimately, public confidence by requiring agencies to identify measurable annual performance goals, against which actual achievements can be compared. This report is one in a series of reports resulting from our audits of GPRA goals. This report discusses the FY 2000 DoD GPRA Performance Measures 1.3.2,'Surge Sealift', and 1.3.3. Forces Supported by Land- and Sea-Based Pre-Positioningl. (Pre-Positioned Equipment). GPRA performance Goal 1.3, 'Strategic Mobility,' comprises Performance Measure 1.3.1, 'Airlift Capacity;' Surge Sealift; and Pre-Positioned Equipment. The overall goal for those performance measures is to 'maintain the capability to move military forces from the United States to any location in the world in response to aggression, using a combination of airlift, sealift, and pre-positioned equipment.' The FY 2000 goal for Performance Measure 1.3.2 was 8.7 million square feet of capacity.
