***Average Percentage Out-of-Pocket Housing Expenses Paid by Service Member***

**To eliminate out-of-pocket housing**
**costs, DoD will provide service members**
**with more than $3 billion in housing**
** ****allowances over the next 5 years.**

**Notes:**
The performance scorecard for reducing paper-bound contracting processes shows the Fiscal Year 1997 baseline at 71%.

DoD accepted, and is exceeding, the NPR goal of 50% paperless contracting transactions -- 67% of the Department’s transactions are currently paperless (33% paper-bound).

However, DoD is pursuing its separately established goal of 90% paperless; requiring a further 23% reduction.

## Reduce Overall DoD TDY Travel Management Expenses.

***Estimated Annual Direct Cost Savings Resulting from Defense Travel System (DTS)***

***DRO 2000 CD: Chapter 2.02***

***Source: Final Economic Analysis, Defense Travel System, December 31, 1998***

**Implementation of new, electronic Defense **
**Travel System is expected to result in total estimated**
**direct cost savings of $481M over 8-years.**

- Annual Savings in Millions of Dollars

**Notes:**
- 1) Travel management expenses include traveler, approval authority and processing cost burdens.

## Reduce TDY Traveler and Administration Cost per Voucher via DTS.

- 1) Traveler Cost = Dollar value of time spent filling out and approving travel vouchers at the mission level.
- 2) Administration Cost = Dollar value of time spent processing travel vouchers.
