We announced the subject audit on May 5, 2025 (attached). The objective was to determine whether the Army effectively developed the M10 Booker Combat Vehicle to meet operational needs. We are terminating this audit because many of the DoD and Army acquisition processes are undergoing significant changes that accelerated after we announced our audit.
In place of this audit, we intend to issue a summary report on lessons learned from recent DoD OIG reports on DoD acquisition processes and programs that will remain relevant regardless of the changes to the acquisition processes. While the summary report will not include any lessons learned from the M10 Booker Combat Vehicle program, it may help the DoD avoid similar challenges with other major acquisitions.
