Let me add just a few points, because this member has raised this issue repeatedly, and he's right to do so. This has been ongoing for 12 years. I have a couple of thoughts for you.
DND is the biggest inventory holder we have. They actually, if I recall correctly, have more than 200 million parts that they're tracking. We're not going to solve this with manual intervention; this is a systems issue. They had two systems: one to record the inventory and track where it was and a second one that did the pricing. They have recently made some improvements on the systems side, which will help us.
The other piece, and the one I'm preoccupied with, is that I care very much about how old the errors are. DND is still tracking parts that date back to World War II. They're in the system. They're probably not relevant anymore. Now, I don't know that; I'm speculating here.
I get fussed when I find out that the errors are on new stuff. Are the errors on relatively new purchases or are they on stuff that dates back to 1964? It's the new stuff I care more about.
We are in discussions with National Defence. The Auditor General mentioned obsolescence. Maybe there's a certain bucket of parts we should just write off, move on from. Let's be done with those, figure out what's no longer relevant, and just start fresh with the relevant things.
That's a massive undertaking itself, but to fix this, I think that's what we need to do.
