According to the department's systems inventory, this environment is composed of 2, 258 business systems and includes 335 financial management, 709 human resource management, 645 logistics, 243 real property and installation, and 281 weapon acquisition management systems. 9 GAO, Business Systems Modernization: DOD Continues to Improve Institutional Approach, but Further Steps Needed, GAO-06-658 ( Washington, D.C.: May 15, 2006 ).
