Comparative Analysis of Government and Private Sector ADP Acquisition.

Abstract

This thesis has identified the primary regulatory and administrative requirements related to the acquisition of major automated information systems (AIS). In addition, case analysis was performed on current ADP projects to evaluate the application of acquisition directives to obtain pertinent cost data for model development. A baseline model was created from available data using the Interactive Financial Planning System (IRPS). This model delineates the cost elements germane to the approval and acquisition phases of the life cycle management process. This concluded the initial phase of an effort towards a comparison of government and private sector acquisition processes. Further analysis of these acquisition processes is recommended for continued model refinement, including decision support system applications. (Author)
