Abstract:

This report is an analysis of the Army Procurement Appropriation Customer Financial Plan and in particular of the accuracy of projections of customer orders on the lRCS CSCAB-307-11 reports. Projections of the FY 79 program of orders accepted, commitments, and obligations are compared with performance in FY 77 and FY 78. Since FMS orders have presented the greatest forecasting difficulty in the past, some suggestions are made regarding these. Additionally, an alternative method of projecting total program orders, commitments, and obligations is described which may be helpful in refining future program forecasts. Author
