Restoring the Army's Acquisition Contracting Corps
Abstract
Acquisition failures in expeditionary operations require a systemic fix of the Army Acquisition system. In 2007, the Secretary of the Army established an independent Commission on Army Acquisition and Program Management in Expeditionary Operations to review the lessons learned in recent operations and to provide forward-looking recommendations to ensure future military operations achieve greater effectiveness, efficiency, accountability, and transparency. This SRP compares Army's contracting program with the contracting programs of the Navy and Air Force. In the basis of this comparison, it offers recommendations for improving Army contracting, which has been under scrutiny for the past ten years.
