Defense Management: Status of Recommendations by Blue Ribbon Commission on Defense Management

Abstract

The Packard Commission divided its recommendations into four sections and we have maintained the same structure in the appendixes II through V to this report. The appendixes contain a total of 55 recommendations. The results of our analyses are summarized below and the details are in the appendixes. Our analyses show the actions taken on the recommendations but it is still too early to assess the actual effect of most of the actions taken. The status of the recommendations is based on data available as of July 31, 1988.
