Book Synopsis The Department of Defense and Its Use of Small Businesses by : Elaine Reardon
Download or read book The Department of Defense and Its Use of Small Businesses written by Elaine Reardon and published by RAND Corporation. This book was released on 2005 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Congress has directed that 23 percent of direct federal purchases come from small businesses. As the largest purchaser in the federal government, the Department of Defense (DoD) is key to achieving this policy objective. The impetus for this research was to suggest industries that DoD could target for outreach to small firms. This briefing compares DoD procurement from small businesses with non-DoD federal procurement from small businesses, and it documents the prevalence of small businesses in industries DoD relies upon. The analysis suggests industries for possible outreach efforts and concludes that it is more difficult for DoD to reach the procurement goal than for the rest of the federal government because of the nature of the goods it buys, such as aircraft and large weapon systems. The authors of the briefing used the Federal Procurement Data System to study government spending and the 1997 Economic Census to analyze small firms in the economy.

Book excerpt: For several decades the Federal Government has sought to aid and assist small businesses. These efforts have included congressional establishment of government-wide statutory goals for the Federal Government to purchase at least 23 percent of all its goods and services from small businesses. Because the Department of Defense (DoD) purchases about two-thirds of all goods and services the Federal Government buys, its purchasing practices greatly affect the success of federal procurement policy favoring small businesses. The DoD has had mixed success in meeting the procurement goal. Given the importance of DoD purchases to government-wide small-business procurement efforts, Congress asked the DoD Office of Small Business Programs for an assessment of impediments to small-business owners in contracting or subcontracting with the department. The DoD in turn authorized RAND to undertake this study in February 2008, and the study was completed in May 2008. As requested, the report includes, among other topics, analyses of available data on the following: (1) small-business size thresholds and how these affect the ability of a firm to work for the DoD, (2) contract bundling, (3) the distribution of small-business subcontracts between professional services and research and development, (4) transitioning Small Business Innovation Research programs to procurement, (5) the effects of the DoD Vendor Pay system on small business, (6) the effects of the Mentor-Protege Program, and (7) impediments to the success of businesses that graduate from small-business programs or seek to become larger businesses.

Book Synopsis The Effects of Department of Defense Acquisition Reform on Women-Owned Small Businesses and Small Disadvantaged Businesses by : Bette E. Stricker
Download or read book The Effects of Department of Defense Acquisition Reform on Women-Owned Small Businesses and Small Disadvantaged Businesses written by Bette E. Stricker and published by . This book was released on 2004-12-01 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines the effects of acquisition reform on Women-Owned Small Businesses (WOSBs) and Small Disadvantaged Businesses (SDBs) who contracted with DOD during the 1990s through 2002 timeframe. Review and analysis of DOD data for fiscal years 1992 through 2002, an analysis of websites and acquisition literature, and interviews with DOD contracting and small business specialists provided the basis for this study. It identifies acquisition reform legislation enacted in the 1990s that has had a direct impact on WOSBs and SDBs and examines the charge that the practice of contract bundling has negatively impacted the ability of small businesses to win DOD contracts. An analysis of contract bundling data from the Small Business Office of Advocacy, Congress and DOD demonstrates that the data is insufficient and inconsistent to prove or disprove that contract bundling is negatively impacting small businesses. However, DOD data for fiscal years 1992 through 2002 indicates that DOD contracting with WOSBs improved consistently, particularly after enactment of the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act (FASA) of 1994 which mandated that the federal government, inclusive of DOD, award five percent of total yearly procurement dollars to WOSBs.

Panel on Business Challenges in the Defense Industry and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Panel found that small and midsize businesses face particular challenges in contracting with the DOD. In recent years, the DOD has been unable to meet its small business federal procurement goals. Furthermore, the Panel found that DOD lacks the ability to track small business participation at the lower subcontract tiers. The Panel also found that DOD lacks a culture that fosters small business participation where appropriate. In its work, the Panel concluded that the defense acquisition workforce has struggled to manage and execute programs in the midst of challenges in acquiring and retaining a professionally certified and competent defense acquisition workforce. Many described the defense acquisition workforce as part of a 'risk-averse' culture where program managers, in particular, have difficulty in balancing risks in managing cost, schedule and performance of acquisition programs. DOD has, in some cases, outsourced program management and divested itself of critical skills that are difficult to develop -- contracting officials, cost estimators, and systems engineers. This reliance on private contractors can create a potential conflict of interest and blur the lines between what work must be performed by federal employees and what work is permitted to be performed by private contractors. In addition, the Panel found that constantly changing regulations leads to unnecessary complexity, confusion, and poor execution, only furthering challenges for the acquisition workforce.

Download or read book SBIR at the Department of Defense written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2014-09-30 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Created in 1982 through the Small Business Innovation Development Act, the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program remains the nation's single largest innovation program for small business. The SBIR program offers competitive awards to support the development and commercialization of innovative technologies by small private-sector businesses. At the same time, the program provides government agencies with technical and scientific solutions that address their different missions. SBIR at the Department of Defense considers ways that the Department of Defense SBIR program could work better in addressing the congressional objectives for the SBIR program to stimulate technological innovation, use small businesses to meet federal research and development (R & D) needs, foster and encourage the participation of socially and economically disadvantaged small businesses, and increase the private sector commercialization of innovations derived from federal R&D. An earlier report, An Assessment of the Small Business Innovation Research Program at the Department of Defense, studied how the SBIR program has stimulated technological innovation and used small businesses to meet federal research and development needs. This report builds on the previous one, with a revised survey of SBIR companies. SBIR at the Department of Defense revisits some case studies from the 2009 study and develops new ones, and interviews agency managers and other stakeholders to provide a second snapshot of the program's progress toward achieving its legislative goals.
