Internal and independent reviews, including ours, find that after more than a decade of under-investment in the weapons complex, it is at unacceptably high risk to perform currently agreed upon weapon refurbishments, and it remains unready to fix nuclear component problems that may arise in years ahead. Throughout the broader complex the trends point downward because of the aging of facilities and the workforce. Morale is low, especially in the laboratories. Parts of the weapon complex infrastructure are defective; the production capabilities that remain are fragile. The Panel sees a growing need for a coherent vision, comprehensive plan, and programmatic commitment to reverse this situation. The panel issued recommendations on the production complex; design, production, and certification; surveillance; assessment tools and methods; annual certification process; DoD's roles; and test readiness.…
