Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GAO's continuing reviews of the acquisition workforce, focusing on the Department of Defense (DOD); the Departments of the Army, Navy, and Air Force; the Departments of Veterans Affairs, Energy, and Health and Human Services; the General Services Administration; and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, indicate that some of the government's largest procurement operations are not run efficiently. GAO found that requirements are not clearly defined, prices and alternatives are not fully considered, or contracts are not adequately overseen. The ongoing technological revolution requires a workforce with new knowledge, skills, and abilities, and the nature of acquisition is changing from routine simple buys toward more complex acquisitions and new business practices. DOD has adopted multidisciplinary and multifunctional definitions of their acquisition workforce, but the civilian agencies have not. DOD and the civilian agencies reviewed have developed specific training requirements for their acquisition workforce and mechanisms to track the training of acquisition personnel. All of the agencies reviewed said they had sufficient funding to provide current required core training for their acquisition workforce, but some expressed concerns about funding training for future requirements and career development, particularly because of budget cuts made recently at the Defense Acquisition University.

Download or read book Acquisition Career Management Mandatory Course Fulfillment Program and Competency Standards written by and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department of Defense (DoD) Manual, Career Development Program for Acquisition Personnel, states that members of the acquisition workforce may fulfill their mandatory training requirements based on previous experience, education, and/or alternative training programs. The FY 93 Defense Authorization Act requires that DoD have a fulfillment plan in place for eligible acquisition personnel. The Under Secretary of Defense (Acquisition & Technology) delegated this responsibility to the Director, Acquisition Education, Training and Career Development (AET & CD). The fulfillment plan outlined in this guide utilizes competencies developed by the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) Functional Boards. A consortium of DoD schools under the auspices of the Defense Acquisition University (DAU), then develops and delivers this training to the acquisition workforce. These competencies establish the baseline standards for demonstrating fulfillment of the mandatory courses listed in DoD 5000.52M. The purpose of the fulfillment program is to enable acquisition workforce members to receive credit for courses for which they already have the required competencies. With increased emphasis on training for members of the acquisition workforce, having training on a personnel record makes an employee more competitive with his/her peers. In some cases, however, the employee already possesses the abilities that the course imparts but does not have the formal training. This program is designed to allow that employee to receive credit for the course and not fall behind other employees who receive this training.

Book excerpt: Congress established DAWDF in 2008 to provide DOD with a dedicated source of funding to help recruit and train members of the acquisition workforce. Since 2008, DOD has obligated more than $3.5 billion to meet those objectives. However, in 2012, GAO reported that DOD's ability to execute hiring and other initiatives had been hindered by delays in the DAWDF funding process, resulting in a large amount of unused funds being carried over from year to year. GAO was asked to review DOD's management of DAWDF. This report examines (1) the process DOD uses to fund DAWDF and (2) DOD's DAWDF management and oversight. DOD should (1) clarify whether DAWDF funds could be used to pay for personnel to help manage the fund and (2) ensure that DOD components have processes in place to verify the accuracy and completeness of DAWDF data.
