Inventory System
Post is able to take advantage of official travel for spot-checking
on an ad hoc basis. However, on-site inspections are infrequent
given the small size of the program. Post supplements personal
inspection with information obtained from Chilean contacts about the
use and status of equipment. Experience has shown the Chileans to
be reliable in their reporting.
