Recombining and Co-Locating the Engineering Support Project Management Functions of Naval Ship Acquisition: An Overview and Attitude Study.

Abstract

During the fall of 1965 the design and engineering functions of the Bureau of Shipbuilding were separated from the parent command and established as a field activity. This study is a chronology of the events behind this split, how operational problems grew for the divided commands and what actions are planned to alleviating these problems along with reducing man power. Of greater importance is the analysis of a multi-part questionnaire sent to 108 project management and/or engineering support personnel involved, to determine their attitudes toward combination and co-location of the two commands. The major impact of this study is to add to the information available to the planners of such an action. (Author)
