Abstract:

This report documents the principal findings of a study on exploring innovative ways for acquiring advanced technologies to meet future Army needs-namely, using public-private partnerships PPPs. This report is an updated and expanded version of a paper presented at the Army Materiel Command AMC Executive Steering Committee meeting in April 1997. At that time, the focus of the study was limited to generating revenue from research and development RD opportunities and infrastructure assets. The research was broadened to examine other advantages of PPPs. This report examines the overall utility of PPPs from the Armys perspective.
