The Military Services received funding for only 90 percent of their FY89 transportation requirements. A comparable shortfall applies to FY90. Such funding shortfalls are severely constraining DoD transportation budgets. They also are contributing to shipment delays that threaten to degrade readiness and sustainability. Although many of the causes of the funding shortfalls are outside DoD's control, it can still undertake a variety of actions to improve transportation efficiencies and reduce transportation expenditures consistent with readiness and sustainability goals. We recommend the following: Adjust Military Airlift Command's (MAC's) Charges to Reflect Actual Mission Cost; Increase Aerial Port Holding Times; Improve Airlift Workload Stability; Introduce Discrete Military Sealift Command (MSC) Billing Rates; Revise MSC's Contracts to Improve Rate and Service Stability; Reduce Cost of the International Shipment of Personal Property; and Introduce More Flexibility in Traffic Management.
