Download or read book How DoD Policy Affects Private Expenditure on Independent Research and Development written by Frank A. Camm and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department of Defense (DOD) maintains a policy that is designed to reimburse defense contractors for a portion of their spending on Independent Research and Development (IR & D). DOD pays for a great deal of research and development directly through contracts. IR & D is research and development that DOD does not contract for directly. IR & D policy is designed to encourage defense contractors to invest in this form of research and development despite the lack of direct contracts for research and development. It is often associated with Bid and Proposal (B & P) funds, which DOD provides to contractors in a similar way. Those who support maintaining the independence of IR & D argue that it increases private spending on defense research and development, provides defense options that government officials may not think of, and enhances the transfer of technology from scientists to weapons developers by giving developers a direct stake in the scientists' work. Section II presents a simple economic model of IR & D. Section III uses this model to review the economic approach taken in each study. Section IV compares the studies' estimates of the size of subsidy created by IR & D policy and the effects of IR & D policy on private spending on IR & D. Section V concludes the comparison and suggests directions for future research.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department of Defense and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration reimburse contractors, as overhead items, for the expenses of certain independently chosen R & D projects judged relevant to military needs. These "independent R & D" (IR & D) expenses are recognized by the agencies as necessary costs of doing business. The agencies also expect the system of reimbursement to help develop innovative technologies and foster strong and competitive contractor industries. The agencies set a ceiling (by formula or negotiation) on each company's recovery. Bid and proposal costs are also reimbursed, lumped with IR & D costs under a single ceiling for each company. Critics have quarreled with many of the system's features, from accounting procedures to the system's fundamental propriety. The Committee on Independent Research and Development Issues identified and analyzed the issues raised by critics and proponents, compared and interpreted prior studies, and developed guidelines and a methodology for a comprehensive study of the IR & D system; the committee's report contains in addition a detailed history of the IR & D system and a catalog of proposed alternatives to the current system.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents findings from a research study conducted by RAND Project AIR FORCE, a division of the RAND Corporation, to examine the effects of using price-based acquisition (PBA) approaches for the development and production of major Air Force weapon systems, subsystems, and other military-unique articles. Typically in these cases, the cost-based acquisition (CBA) approach is used-i.e., the price to develop and produce such an article is based on cost data that the government requires the contractor to provide. Critics of this traditional, CBA method see it as imposing heavy regulatory burdens on the government and the contractor and tending to discourage potential non-defense contractors from competing for government contracts, thus reducing competition and quality and increasing cost.
