520    "The Department of Defense (DoD) routinely seeks ways to 
       become more efficient and reduce costs. Each military 
       service provides its members and their families with a 
       wide range of services supported by resources that are 
       paid for using congressionally appropriated funding (APF),
       nonappropriated funding (NAF), or a combination thereof. 
       DoD was interested in determining whether any 
       administrative NAF activities could be consolidated -- and,
       if so, whether consolidation would save costs. DoD created
       a task force to explore these issues and identified 
       several areas for improvement, ranging from contracting to
       information technology. DoD Military Community and Family 
       Policy asked the RAND National Defense Research Institute 
       to review the work of the task force and provide an 
       independent assessment of specific recommendations. In 
       collaboration with the sponsor, RAND provided intensive 
       analysis of recommendations in two areas for improvement 
       that the task force identified. Researchers determined 
       that application of consolidation could achieve 
       improvement and savings in some NAF accounting activities,
       but that there is considerably less potential in the case 
       of NAF employee benefits"--Publisher's description.
