Application of the Commercial Airline Acquisition Methodology to Department of the Navy Electronic Equipment Acquisitions.
Abstract
The objective of the study was to investigate the application of the Commercial Airline Acquisition Methodology(CAAM) to two selected Department of the Navy (DN) electronic equipment acquisitions. The approach taken was to describe the CAAM and formulate CAAM selection criteria and equipment profile from which candidate programs within NAVELEX and NAVAIR were identified. A comparison was performed of the two methodologies and the two candidates which identified similarities, differences, advantages, and disadvantages. Conclusions and recommendations were formulated and a recommended acquisition methodology developed which highlights those features of CAAM potentially attractive to the DN acquisition of electronic equipment. Potential cost benefits of the recommended acquisition methodology were identified. A pilot program was developed to implement the recommended acquisition methodology for one candidate equipment program.
