Installation Contracting Offices - A Time for Change

Abstract

The contracting workload at Army installations has more than doubled from 1980 to 1988. Although constructive changes have been made to compensate for the additional workload, installation contracting offices are experiencing difficulty in completing mission requirements. This study addresses major Army reorganizations and focuses on their impact on installation contracting. It concludes that change is needed and proposes an organization that will properly staff installation contracting offices while providing the necessary command, control and technical support required to more effectively perform the contracting mission.
