This book was released on 2014-03-31 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Department of Defense The ability to generate reliable cost estimates is a critical function, necessary to support the Department of Defense capital programming process. Without this ability DoD is at risk of experiencing cost overruns, missed deadlines, and performance shortfalls-all recurring problems that our program assessments too often reveal. Furthermore, cost increases often mean that DoD cannot fund as many programs as intended or deliver them when promised. The methodology outlined in this guide is a compilation of best practices that federal cost estimating organizations and industry use to develop and maintain reliable cost estimates throughout the life of a DoD acquisition program. Why buy a book you can download for free? We print this book so you don't have to. First you gotta find a good clean (legible) copy and make sure it's the latest version (not always easy). Some documents found on the web are missing some pages or the image quality is so poor, they are difficult to read. We look over each document carefully and replace poor quality images by going back to the original source document. We proof each document to make sure it's all there - including all changes. If you find a good copy, you could print it using a network printer you share with 100 other people (typically its either out of paper or toner). If it's just a 10-page document, no problem, but if it's 250-pages, you will need to punch 3 holes in all those pages and put it in a 3-ring binder. Takes at least an hour. It's much more cost-effective to just order the latest version from Amazon.com This book includes original commentary which is copyright material. Note that government documents are in the public domain. We print these large documents as a service so you don't have to. The books are compact, tightly-bound, full-size (8 1⁄2 by 11 inches), with large text and glossy covers. 4th Watch Publishing Co. is a SDVOSB.

Download or read book The Impact of the Packard Commission's Recommendations on Reducing Cost Overruns in Major Defense Acquisition Programs written by David A. Searle and published by . This book was released on 1997-09-01 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis examines the impact that recommendations made by the President's Blue Ribbon Commission on Defense Management, informally known as the Packard Commission, had on reducing cost overruns in major DoD acquisition programs. Cost overruns are a recurring problem in the DoD, and the study of possible effects resulting from the implementation of acquisition reform efforts such as the Packard Commission study could alter this trend. In this era of acquisition reform and downsizing it's important that policy makers understand the effects past and current policies have had and are having on reducing the ever present problem of cost overruns. Conclusions drawn in this thesis may guide and direct DoD policy makers in drafting future regulations and policies. This study examined 269 contracts completed between January 1,1988 and December 31,1995. It was found that cost performance for contracts completed after the recommendations went into effect was poorer than cost performance prior to the change. It was also found that a more significant difference occurred between contracts in development phases than those in production phases. In fact, percentage cost overruns for development contracts nearly tripled after the policy went into effect. Possible explanations and implications of this discovery are provided.

Download or read book Defense Acquisitions written by United States Government Accountability Office and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-09-13 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department of Defense (DOD) is planning to invest $1.3 trillion between 2005 and 2009 in researching, developing, and procuring major weapon systems. How DOD manages this investment has been a matter of congressional concern for years. Numerous programs have been marked by cost overruns, schedule delays, and reduced performance. Over the past 3 decades, DOD's acquisition environment has undergone many changes aimed at curbing cost, schedule, and other problems. In order to determine if the policy DOD put in place is achieving its intended goals, we assessed the outcomes of major weapons development programs initiated under the revised policy. Additionally, we assessed whether the policy's knowledge-based, evolutionary principles are being effectively implemented, and whether effective controls and specific criteria are in place and being used to make sound investment decisions.

Download or read book DOD BUSINESS SYSTEMS MODERNIZATION: Key Marine Corps System Acquisition Needs to be Better Justified, Defined, and Managed written by and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DOD has not effectively implemented key IT management controls on its GCSS-MC program. Collectively, these management controls are intended to reasonably ensure that investment in a given system represents the right solution to fill a mission need and if it is, that the system is acquired and deployed the right way, meaning that it is done in a manner that maximizes the chances of delivering defined system capabilities and benefits on time and within budget. Given that deployment of GCSS-MC is more than 3 years behind schedule and expected to cost about $193 million more than envisioned, these goals are already not being met, in part because DOD program management and oversight entities have not adequately implemented several key IT management controls. As a result, the department does not have a sufficient basis for knowing that GCSS-MC, as defined, is the best system solution to meeting its mission needs, and the program is likely to experience further schedule slips and cost overruns, along with reduced system capabilities. Weaknesses associated with DOD's implementation of five key IT management controls, as well as recent actions to correct weaknesses with another management control, are as follows: " GCSS-MC compliance with DOD's federated business enterprise architecture (BEA) has not been sufficiently demonstrated. To its credit, the program office has followed DOD's BEA compliance guidance.
