This testimony focuses on prior reporting concerning: (1) the lack of quantitative metrics to measure the extent to which DTS is actually being used; (2) weaknesses with DTS¿s requirements mgmt. and system testing; and (3) two key assumptions related to the estimated cost savings in the Sept. 2003 DTS economic analysis were not reasonable.

To address these objectives, the auditor: (1) analyzed specific documentation, such as test documentation, travel policies, and budget data; and (2) interviewed appropriate DoD travel personnel.
