Secretary of Defense Report to Congress. Actions to Accelerate the Movement to the New Workforce Vision
Abstract
Section 912(c) of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1998 directs the Secretary of Defense to submit to Congress an implementation plan to streamline the acquisition organizations, workforce, and infrastructure. The implementation plan takes into account the review of acquisition organizations and functions done by the Department of Defense in accordance with section 912(d) and an assessment of acquisition organizations by the Task Force on Defense Reform in accordance with section 912(e). As you know, the Task Force on Defense Reform was disestablished when it delivered its report in November 1997. Consequently, the Under Secretary of Defense (Acquisition & Technology), as discussed with your staff, established a Defense Science Board Sub-Task Force on the Acquisition Workforce to conduct an independent assessment similar to that which would have been conducted by the Task Force on Defense Reform. I am forwarding that assessment to you by a separate letter. I have reviewed the Defense Science Board (DSB) report, have fully considered the DSB's conclusions and recommendations, and have incorporated the concepts in the recommendations, as appropriate, into my own report.
