Abstract
Critical Success Factors (CSF) are ingredients within an organization that are essential for the organization to meet critical mission objectives. Identifying these factors can be a vital asset and can assist leadership in achieving successful outcomes in contract management. This report will focus on three major contracting commands within the United States Navy -- Naval Supply Systems Command, Global Logistics Support (NAVSUP-GLS), Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA), and Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) -- and two major Department of Defense (DoD) contractors. The research will analyze contract management Critical Success Factors, referencing information and feedback received from the respective organizations. In particular, the research will help identify any statistically significant correlations within these organizations' CSFs using a detailed regression analysis. The report concludes with findings of significance to Naval contracting activities based on correlations between Critical Success Factors and the perceived ability of the agencies' employees to carry out their mission to meet them.
