One-Step and Two-Step Facility Acquisition for Military Construction: Project Selection and Implementation Procedures

Abstract

With the cost of construction to replace deteriorated facilities estimated in the billions, the Department of Defense is seeking ways of reducing both the time and money spent to provide structures of the high quality needed to support the military mission.
