Army ‘Wasted’ Millions on Ground Transport in Mideast: IG
Posted By: Richard Sisk June 28, 2017
The Army failed to provide “effective administration and oversight” of commercial providers of heavy lift of cargo, equipment and personnel in support of Operation Inherent Resolve in Iraq and Syria, the Defense Department’s Office of the Inspector General said in a report released Wednesday.
The report states, “The Army ordered an average of 39 percent more transportation assets than it needed” for heavy-lift ground transportation contracts, called “HL7” contracts because they were in the seventh stage of the program.
