Task Group on an Outreach Plan to Improve Communications Between the Department of Defense and the Defense Industrial Base

Abstract

The Deputy Secretary of Defense tasked the Defense Business Board (DBB) to form a task group to evaluate and make recommendations to the Department of Defense (DoD) regarding actions that could improve the communications between the Department and its core industrial base. Specifically, the Task Group was asked to provide the Under Secretary of Defense, Acquisition Technology and Logistics (USD (AT&L)) with a 24- month outreach plan to serve as a ?first meeting primer? for him and his principal staff to engage the industrial base. This plan should promote frequent and transparent communications between the industrial base and the Department to inform and align near-term and long-term investment decisions. The plan should identify (1) people/groups to meet, to include acquisition, requirements, and resource setting entities; (2) best timing for such meetings; and (3) key agenda items.
