This report is one of a series of reviews that we are conducting in response to your request that we identify ways to improve the Department of Defense's (DOD's) availability of high quality spare parts for aircraft, ships, vehicles, and weapons systems. In one of these reviews, we found that the Navy's servicewide strategic plan does not specifically address means to mitigate critical spare parts shortages. This report focuses on the effectiveness of spare parts support provided to deployed U.S. Navy ships. To address this issue, we examined (1) the extent to which the Navy is meeting its spare parts supply goals on deployed ships, (2) the reasons for any unmet supply goals, and (3) the effects of spare parts supply problems on ships operations, mission readiness, and costs.
