Navy Maintenance: Cost and Schedule Performance at San Diego and Long Beach Shipyards

Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed cost and schedule information on ship repairs at San Diego, California, and Long Beach, California, area shipyards, focusing on the comparison of: (1) contract award prices and final contract prices for ship repairs; (2) government cost estimates at the start of the contract and the actual costs at work completion; (3) original completion schedules with actual completion dates for private and public shipyards; and (4) San Diego and Long Beach private shipyards' performance.
