USDRE Independent Review of DoD Laboratories

Abstract

On 3 September 1981, Dr. Richard DeLauer, Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering, established a review of Department of Defense laboratories. This review was undertaken by Dr. Robert Hermann under the direction of Dr. Robert Cooper with the assistance of representatives of the Army, Navy, Air Force and DARPA. During the course of the review, 28 laboratories, R/D centers, and related organizations were visited; a host of industry and government officials were interviewed; and four major industrial associations (ADPA, AIA, EIA, NSIA) were consulted. In addition, an industrial advisory group was formed, in part from the 1981 DSB Task Force on the DoD technology Base, to advise, critique, and comment on the final report and its development.
