Book Synopsis Defense Conversion by : Jacques S. Gansler
Download or read book Defense Conversion written by Jacques S. Gansler and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1996-07-25 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jacques Gansler takes a hard look at the need to convert the industry from an inefficient and noncompetitive part of the U.S. economy to an integrated, civilian/military operation. Author of two widely-read books on the defense industry, Jacques Gansler takes a hard look at the need to convert the industry from an inefficient and noncompetitive part of the U.S. economy to an integrated, civilian/military operation. He defines the challenges, especially the influence of old-line defense interests, and presents examples of restructuring. Gansler discusses growing foreign involvement, lessons of prior industrial conversions, the best structure for the next century, current barriers to integration, a three-part transformation strategy, the role of technological leadership, and the critical workforce. He concludes by outlining sixteen specific actions for achieving civil/military integration. In Gansler's view, the end of the Cold War with the former Soviet Union represents a permanent downturn rather than a cyclical decline in the defense budget. He argues that this critical transition period requires a restructuring of the defense acquisitions process to achieve a balance between economic concerns and national security, while maintaining a force size and equipment modernization capable of deterring future conflicts. Gansler argues that for the defense industry to survive and thrive, the government must make its acquisitions process more flexible, specifically by lowering barriers to integration. This includes, among other things, rethinking the production specifications for new equipment and changing bids for contracts from a cost basis to a price basis. Gansler point out that by making primarily political and procedural changes (rather than legislative ones), companies will be able to produce technology for both civilian and military markets, instead of exclusively for one or the other as has been the norm. This dual-use approach would save the government billions of dollars annually and would enable the military to diversify by utilizing state-of-the-art.

Book excerpt: The increasing consolidation of the defense aerospace industry, brought about by post-Cold War reductions in defense authorizations, has led to the proliferation of cross-border relationships between U.S. and European firms. This report examines aerospace industry globalization trends with a view toward determining how the U.S. Air Force can best exploit such trends while minimizing their risks. It concludes that further research must be done to ascertain how the advantages of globalization, such as increased competition and interoperability, can best be achieved without compromising security concerns.

Book Synopsis A Comparative Financial Analysis of the U.S. Defense Industry During the Post Cold War Defense Drawdown by : William T. Chatman
Download or read book A Comparative Financial Analysis of the U.S. Defense Industry During the Post Cold War Defense Drawdown written by William T. Chatman and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The on-going defense drawdown has left leaders in both Government and industry concerned over the survival of the U.S. defense industrial base. The purpose of this thesis is to explore whether or not such conoern is warranted, given the various strategic efforts undertaken by the management of U.S. defense firms to ensure that their companies remain competitive, profitable, and financially viable despite shrinking defense budgets. Using eight different financial ratios as pertormance measures of solvency, efficiency, and profitability, this thesis examines the financial viability of 28 defense contractors from 1986 through 1994. Graphical and statistical analytical techniques are used to: identty ratio trends; measure defense industry performance compared to U.S. manufacturing industry averages; and identify the relationship between defense firms' strategic commitment to/dependence on defense business and their financial viability over the period of the defense drawdown. The thesis concludes that the solvency ratio trends show steadily to improving conditions, while the trends for efficiency and profitability ratios are somewhat mixed. Analysis also shows that, compared to the U.S. manufacturing industry at large, the defense industry was less solvent, less efficient, and more profitable over the period of the drawdown. However, the more defense-dependent firms were generally more solvent, more efficient, and less profitable than defense firms whose strategies indicated less dependence on defense business.
