This book was released on 1997-12-01 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One tenet of acquisition reform is to reduce the number of military specifications and standards contained in Department of Defense (DoD) contracts and to allow contractors the opportunity to use their own best practices to satisfy contractual requirements. The Single Process initiative (SPI) is DoD's effort to incorporate this policy into existing contracts, via a streamlined process. The SPI process supports the elimination or replacement of existing military specifications and standards with industry-wide practices and promotes the use of single manufacturing and management processes within a contractor facility. This thesis uses the results from 43 surveys of Government and industry participants in SPI to examine the extent to which SPI has been successful in promoting the use of single manufacturing and management processes at contractor facilities.

Download or read book Measuring the Statutory and Regulatory Constraints on Department of Defense Acquisition written by Jeffrey A. Drezner and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 2007 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Managers of weapon system acquisition programs and their staffs have often voiced concerns about the burden of complying with federal statutes or regulations requiring certain business and oversight processes. The essence of the concerns is that program offices spend an inordinate amount of time complying with statutes and regulations that add little value, and that the regulatory burden translates into cost increases, schedule delays, and adverse effects on system performance. While many other studies have addressed this topic, few have succeeded in generating the empirical evidence needed to inform the policy debate. To fill this gap, NDRI developed a Web-based data collection tool to capture the program staff's estimates of hours spent on compliance efforts. A total of 316 individuals in seven DoD program offices were recruited to use the web tool to estimate biweekly the time they spent on regulatory compliance-related activities over the course of a year. While statutes and regulations do place constraints on program execution, the study found that program office staffs do not appear to spend a significant amount of their time complying with those statutes and regulations. Further, there is little evidence that program office compliance activities have adverse consequences for program outcomes.
