Download or read book Defense Acquisitions: Rapid Acquisition of MRAP Vehicles written by Michael J. Sullivan and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As of July 2008, about 75% of casualties in combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan were attributed to improvised explosive devices. To mitigate the threat from these weapons, DoD initiated the Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) program in Feb. 2007, which used a tailored acquisition approach to rapidly acquire and field the vehicles. To date, about $23 billion has been appropriated for the procurement of 16,000 MRAP vehicles. This testimony describes the MRAP acquisition process, the results to date, lessons learned from that acquisition, and potential implications for improving the standard acquisition process. The auditor reviewed DoD's plans to buy, test, and field the vehicles and discussed the plans with department and contractor officials.

This book was released on 2008-11 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About 75% of casualties in current combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan are attributed to improved explosive devices. To mitigate the threat from these weapons, the DoD initiated the Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicle program, which uses a tailored acquisition approach to rapidly acquire and field the vehicles. MRAP is DoD¿s single most important acquisition program. To date, more than $22 billion has been appropriated to acquire more than 15,000 MRAP vehicles, and about 6,600 of the vehicles have been fielded. This report: (1) describes DoD¿s approach for and progress in implementing its strategy for rapidly acquiring and fielding MRAP vehicles; and (2) identifies the challenges remaining for the program.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this MBA Project is to analyze the procedures followed in the acquisition of the Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicle. The MRAP program, initiated in response to the improvised explosive device (IED) threat in Iraq and Afghanistan, is unprecedented in timeline and scale. As such, it provides a unique case study on the rapid acquisition of a major military system in response to an urgent operational need. The objective of this research is to provide a guide for future rapid acquisition programs by documenting the conduct of the MRAP program from the initial needs identification and program start in 2006 through production and fielding at the time of this writing. The major analysis will focus on the program as a rapid acquisition within the context of the Acquisition Management and Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System (JCIDS) framework. The goal for analysis is to answer the following question: What are the key factors and decisions that contributed to program success, with success defined as meeting program objectives and warfighter needs? In addition, this report will address the key trade-offs made within the MRAP program and the potential long-term impacts of these decisions.

Book excerpt: The Department of Defense (DoD) is acquiring two new tactical wheeled vehicles (TWV): the Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) All Terrain Vehicle (M-ATV) and the Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV). The $12.5 billion M-ATV is for use in Afghanistan; JLTV is the future replacement for vehicles like the High Mobility Multi-purpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV). This report assessed: (1) DoD's progress in rapidly acquiring and fielding M-ATVs; (2) JLTV's expected features and cost compared to other TWV; and (3) the extent to which the current plans for M-ATV and JLTV are consistent with the services' TWV investment strategies. Includes recommendations. Charts and tables. This is a print on demand edition of an important, hard-to-find publication.

Book Synopsis Arming America at War by : Lawrence R. Jones
Download or read book Arming America at War written by Lawrence R. Jones and published by IAP. This book was released on 2010-06-01 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book follows the evolution of a model for quick and efficient national defense war fighting asset acquisition during time of war. It documents the case of a critically important war fighting acquisition program from initial needs identification and program start in 2006 through production and fielding in the period 2007-2010. The analysis focuses on the entire process of acquisition and contracting from concept development through getting the weapons system into action in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere. The Mine Resistant Ambush Protected vehicles program (MRAP) is a rapid acquisition program procured within the context of the US Department of Defense's Acquisition Management and Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System (JCIDS) framework. The analysis in this book answers the following question: What are the key factors that explain the success of the MRAP program, with success defined as meeting program objectives and warfighter needs? In addition, this book addresses the critical trade-offs made within the MRAP program to develop it rapidly, and some of the potential long-term impacts of these decisions, both positive and negative, for rapid defense asset acquisition in time of war.
Book Synopsis Acquisition Reform by : Kevin B. Peterson
Download or read book Acquisition Reform written by Kevin B. Peterson and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nine years of persistent engagement of our Joint Forces in Iraq and Afghanistan has made demands on the Defense Acquisition System to become more agile and responsive in providing capabilities to the field to satisfy urgent operational needs. An examination of programs ranging from body armor, Improvised Explosive Device Jammers, armored tactical wheeled vehicles, route clearance equipment and other rapid program initiatives results in data that demonstrates acquisition teams performing herculean tasks to get capability to the field quickly. The most significant program in terms of speed, complexity, and oversight was the procurement of Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicles. This research project focuses on the Joint MRAP Vehicle Program (JMPV) as a case study to understand how the program was able to move as rapidly as it did to fulfill an urgent operational need and attempts to answer the strategic question; does MRAP provide a model for Acquisition Reform? If not, what lessons learned from the Joint MRAP Vehicle acquisition and fielding have application to Acquisition Reform? This research will examine from the factory to the battlefield, how the JMVP was able to produce, configure, field and sustain over 26,882 MRAP vehicles currently in use in Iraq and Afghanistan.

This book was released on 2017-03-16 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Truck Saved My Life Lessons Learned from the MRAP Vehicle Program The subject of this book, the Mine-Resistant Ambush-Protected Vehicle Program, was unique in many ways. "MRAP" meant a vehicle that could survive in the face of the mines, roadside improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and ambushes the enemy mounted throughout Iraq and Afghanistan. The program moved with lightning speed-one member of the team described it as "MRAP Speed"-not seen in large defense programs since World War II. It produced a flood of vehicles on such a scale that it was the largest single defense acquisition program in Fiscal Year (FY) 2010-an amazing fact given that the program did not even exist in FY 2006. This book is written to answer these questions by providing a history of the program. To deal with the fundamental questions, that history has to be told in thematic terms. So much happened in parallel that a chronology would be misleading. It would fail to convey the special character and achievements of the MRAP program.
