DEFENSE RESEARCH: Improved Management of DOD's Technical Corrosion Collaboration Program Needed
" According to DOD, corrosion can significantly affect maintenance cost, service life of equipment, and military readiness by diminishing the operations of critical systems and creating safety hazards. Pursuant to Section 2228 of Title 10 of the U.S. Code, DOD's Corrosion Office is responsible for prevention and mitigation of corrosion of military equipment and infrastructure. To help identify technology to prevent or mitigate corrosion and educate personnel about corrosion prevention and control, DOD funds universities and military labs in the TCC program. GAO was asked to review DOD's TCC program and its goals. In this report, GAO addressed the extent to which DOD (1) has established procedures for managing the TCC program, (2) can provide information on the amount of funds spent on the program to date, and (3) has established goals for the TCC program and transitioned demonstrated results from projects to military departments. GAO reviewed DOD policies and plans and met with DOD corrosion officials and TCC participants. "

Overview of briefing charts: revised law and organization place, strategies unchanged, DODI 5000.67 updated, corrosion executive assignment, additional projects funded for 2009, university consortium underway, new national academies study started, 1st DoD corrosion conference in August.
This document provides program and project managers with guidance for developing and implementing a corrosion prevention and control program for DoD weapon systems and infrastructure. It includes corrosion-related policy; management planning; and technical and design considerations that should be addressed for a viable design. This guidance is in accordance with the DoD Corrosion Prevention and Control policy letter, signed by the Acting Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics (USD[AT & L]), 12 November 2003 (see Attachment 1), and the Facility Corrosion Prevention and Control memorandum, signed by the Deputy Under Secretary of Defense for Installations and Environment, 10 March 2005 (Appendix F to Volume III). Program and project managers perhaps more than any other group greatly influence DoD's corrosion-related cost, safety, and reliability impacts during the acquisition of systems and infrastructure. That is why Volumes I and III of the Corrosion Prevention and Control Planning Guidebook are targeted to them. The volumes identify the materials, processes, techniques, and tasks required to develop and integrate an effective corrosion prevention and control program during all phases of DoD weapon system and infrastructure development. The objective is to minimize the effects of corrosion on life-cycle costs, readiness, reliability, supportability, safety, and structural integrity. Volume II of this guidebook focuses on equipment sustainment and includes information on life- cycle logistics and the development of sustainment corrosion programs for weapon systems. Following the guidance in this document in conjunction with applicable program and technical documentation will result in the best possible balance between acquisition and life-cycle costs for DoD systems.
Report examining growth in operating and support (O&S) costs of major DOD weapons systems, and identifying measures to improve DOD ability to manage and reduce O&S costs of weapons systems over their life cycle.
