Army Directorate of Public Works Research Reference Guide

Abstract

This publication is a compilation of summaries of documents collected by the Engineer Studies Center (ESC) in a effort to assist the Army's Directorate of Public Works (DWP) Task Force. DOD has initiated the conversion of Army installation Directorates of Engineering and Housing into industrially- funded Directorates of Public Works. The Navy program has operated in this fashion for many years. Therefore, the Navy Public Works Center documentation was the original focus of the ESC reference gathering efforts. Applicable Army and DOD regulations, instructions, and directives were also gathered, along with appropriate Defense Management Report Decisions. Also collected were studies done on the RPMA management consolidation in the Washington D.C. area over the past 15 years. Each of the documents was reviewed for its significance to the Directorate of Public Works project and those considered important were summarized. In most cases, the Navy PWC documents serve as a good baseline for formulating Army DPW policy. Studies of past experiments and reorganizations should spotlight pitfalls that can be avoided in the current deliberations.
