The Defense Production Act authorizes the President to invest in industrial production—and more—to ensure the availability of needed goods and services. This Q&A examines how executive agencies have used this authority and others in the act. Since 2018, agencies have made $3.2 billion in industrial investments under the act. For example, agencies invested in ramping up production of personal protective equipment like gloves and masks...

Authorized federal agencies can use the Defense Production Act to ensure resources critical to national security are available during a public emergency. This can include requiring U.S. companies that make up the "industrial base" to prioritize orders or contracts for goods or services. We testified about the use of such authorities since the act's 2018 reauthorization. For example, agencies spent $3.2 billion to bolster the...

Russia's 2022 invasion made it harder for Ukraine to safely operate its nuclear power plants and secure sites with radioactive materials, which could be used for dirty bombs. U.S. assistance has included providing radiation detectors and emergency power systems. The war also complicated routine fraud prevention measures. For example, it made it harder to verify that purchased equipment was delivered and working. We found the...

The Department of Defense spent, or planned to spend, $10.9 billion to maintain its IT business programs in FYs 2023-25. In our annual assessment, we reviewed 24 of those programs. DOD didn't report required performance measures on all of them—like customer satisfaction levels. We also found: 2 programs didn't have a strategy in place to reduce cybersecurity threats 4 programs hadn't developed plans to implement...

After the Exxon Valdez oil spill in 1989, federal and Alaska state agencies formed a joint office to oversee the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System. The joint office continues to coordinate oversight but has scaled back shared activities since its formation. We found the agencies work together well in some areas but haven't updated common goals. For example, the joint office has a goal to issue public...

Weapon Systems Annual Assessment:
DOD Leaders Should Ensure That Newer Programs Are Structured for Speed and Innovation
GAO-25-107569Published: Jun 11, 2025 . Publicly Released: Jun 11, 2025 .
Since our last annual assessment, we found that major weapon costs continue to rise as DOD struggles to deliver innovative tech quickly. DOD has been using a streamlined process—known as the "MTA pathway"—to develop and deliver some weapons faster. But even programs on the MTA pathway face delays in developing technologies and getting them into the field. We recommended ensuring that new programs include leading...

On average, the Department of Defense takes almost 12 years to deliver the first version of a weapon system. That's not nearly fast enough to keep up with emerging threats or deliver innovative technology. DOD's development process takes so long because it's more traditional—with rigid, sequential steps. Reform efforts so far have mostly been workarounds to the current system. Our prior work has shown that...

How does IRS know that people are who they say they are when they file their taxes or access online taxpayer resources? IRS relies on one vendor, ID.me, to prove taxpayers' identities for many of its applications. Usually, the process entails uploading documentation—e.g., a driver's license—and providing biometric evidence, like a selfie. IRS monitors some aspects of the process, such as safeguarding taxpayer privacy—but can...

The Department of Homeland Security's Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation (CDM) program gives agencies cybersecurity tools to strengthen the networks and systems they use to meet their missions. While the program has met two of its goals, it lacks sufficient guidance for managing network security and data protection. The program generally supports government-wide cybersecurity initiatives, but DHS's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency hasn't finalized all plans...

When it's unclear who controls a company that's participating in federal programs, there's greater risk of fraud. For example, we reported on a scheme where a company owner obscured his identity to claim a contract set aside for disabled veterans. Other cases include hidden foreign ties. A 2024 law directed some companies to report "beneficial ownership" information to the Treasury Department. Law enforcement and inspectors...

These activities—and the criminal organizations that conduct them—are significant threats to national security.
