The objective of this audit was to determine whether the Army effectively managed the storage, maintenance, and accountability of Army Prepositioned Stock–4 (APS-4) in accordance with Federal and DoD requirements.
The Army Prepositioned Stock (APS) program strategically positions sets of equipment, such as rolling stock and weapon systems, to reduce deployment response times. There are seven APS locations throughout the world, including APS-4 (Northeast Asia). Military units use APS‑4 equipment to support operations throughout Northeast Asia.
