Abstract:
This audit was performed as the final segment of our Audit of Telecommunications Circuit Allocation Programs and involved reviews at various DoD and non-DoD organizations in the Jacksonville, Florida, metropolitan area. For this segment of the audit, we evaluated single and multichannel (special- purpose) circuits in the Jacksonville area. The 368 Defense Communications System (DCS) circuits and associated equipment items we evaluated cost about $3. 3 million annually, excluding overhead, rate stabilization, and common-user (general-purpose) subscriber charges. The overall objective of the audit was to determine whether DoD circuit allocation programs identified and used the most effective configurations for leased long-haul, special-purpose telecommunications circuits. The specific objectives of this segment of the audit were to determine whether the most cost-effective circuit configurations were used and whether existing leased telecommunications services were discontinued when no longer required.
