Crucial to DOD's ability to function well enough to be audited in the 21st century is its replacement of 500 or so legacy systems with 10 modern enterprise resource planning systems (ERP). We've invested billions of dollars in these new systems, but are still have a fair way to go if DOD is to be ready to be audited by 2017, six years from now.
Six of the ten new systems will be late - from two to twelve years - and cost $6.9 billion more than planned.
Many do not have a fully integrated master schedule nor a best practice tool(s).
One does not even comply with the government's Standard General Ledger.
At least two don't have ad-hoc query capabilities and do not meet user requirements.
And Panetta and company are very concerned with possible budget cuts?
