Title:
DOD's Acquisition Improvement Program: Program Managers' Views
Report Date:
1986-09-30
Abstract:
As requested by your letter dated September 13, 1984, we reviewed the Department of Defense's (DOD'S) implementation of the Defense Acquisition Improvement Program, also known as the "Carlucci Initiatives." You asked us to assess the effectiveness of the initiatives on the acquisition process in terms of their objectives to provide cost savings, shorten the acquisition process, increase readiness, and strengthen the industrial base. We previously reported to you on our overall assessment of DOD's progress in implementing the improvement program and also provided a briefing report 2 which contained additional details on the status of the program's 33 individual initiatives. This completes our analysis of the Defense Acquisition Improvement Program by summarizing the results of the questionnaires we sent to government and industry managers of major weapon programs to get their views of the effectiveness of the improvement program.
