Abstract:

The fiscal year 2003 Defense Authorization Act requires the Department of Defense (DOD) to develop by May 1, 2003, a financial management enterprise architecture, including a transition plan, that meets certain requirements. The act also requires that we submit to congressional defense committees an assessment of the architecture and transition plan within 60 days of their approval. (See enclosure I for the requirements of this law.) As part of our ongoing work to satisfy this legislative requirement and at the request of your staff, we briefed your offices on March 4, 2003, on our preliminary assessment of the DOD draft architecture products dated February 7, 2003. As further requested by your staff, this letter transmits the observations we made during the briefing.
