Book excerpt: Pursuant to a legislative requirement, GAO determined whether the Department of Defense (DOD) has effectively implemented the Defense Acquisition Workforce Improvement Act. GAO found that: (1) DOD has established an acquisition workforce management structure and issued implementing policies and regulations as required by the act; (2) DOD has identified and designated 127,000 acquisition workforce positions, but the process of determining specific qualifications of each member of the workforce is time-consuming and delays in the process may lengthen the time individuals take to meet qualification requirements; (3) uncertainties and concerns exist within DOD regarding the intent and implementation of the act's requirement to select the best qualified individual for an acquisition position and ensure that no preference is given to military personnel; (4) administrative and legal concerns have resulted in actions that do not achieve the act's objectives; (5) additional uncertainties exist concerning the act's requirement to substantially increase the proportion of civilians in critical acquisition positions; and (6) DOD is experiencing difficulties in developing the required management information system.

Book excerpt: The Director, Acquisition Education, Training and Career Development, tasked LMI to review the Services' and two Defense Agencies' implementation of the Defense Acquisition Workforce Improvement Act (DAWIA). This review serves as a "baseline," achieving two purposes: providing a foundation for comparing current programs among agencies for possible standardization and potential improvements, and forms a benchmark against which subsequent change can be measured. Overall, the Services and Defense Agencies are operating solid programs to manage the acquisition workforce and complying with DAWIA requirements. In addition, this review noted 15 Best Practices and 4 areas of concern (which are noted by text boxes in the margin of the report) . This review captured the programs as a "snapshot" in time. They will change as the initiatives recommended by the Acquisition 2005 Task Force are implemented. For this reason, we recommend a similar study or review be conducted in Spring 2002 to measure the change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Defense Acquisition Workforce Improvement Act (DAWIA), Public Law 101-510, Title 10 U.S.C. was enacted to improve the effectiveness of the personnel who manage and implement defense acquisition programs. As part of the fiscal year 1991 Defense Authorization Act, it called for establishing an Acquisition Corps and professionalizing the acquisition workforce through education, training, and work experience. While the Act applied to both civilian and military personnel, it emphasized the need to offer civilians greater opportunities for professional development and advancement. This study examines the state of defense acquisition workforce management five years after the law was enacted. The authors will not provide a comprehensive review of DAWIA implementation throughout the entire Department of Defense (DoD), but will instead focus on selected areas. They look across military departments and defense agencies to compare and contrast their policies and procedures regarding how they manage their acquisition workforce. The primary focus is on issues pertaining to civilians, since they make up the majority of the defense acquisition workforce and are a special emphasis area in DAWIA. The authors found that much progress has been made over the past five years, and that the DoD Components have achieved significant gains in improving the quality of their acquisition workforce. But more remains to be done. Their analysis shows that two main areas need improvement: diversity of policies and practices, and disparity between civilian and military opportunities. This paper provides data to support these two findings and offers some strategies to overcome them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed the Department of Defense's (DOD) efforts to establish a new management structure and make changes to its major weapons acquisition systems, focusing on: (1) DOD progress in implementing a presidential advisory commission's recommendations to establish clear accountability over its weapons acquisitions and provide unambiguous authority over its acquisition programs; and (2) related DOD initiatives that address the government's and defense industry's relationship. GAO found that: (1) DOD established clear channels of command by reducing the number of management levels in its acquisition system and creating an Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition position; (2) the newly established acquisition structure streamlined and centralized acquisition processes and reduced some formal reporting requirements; (3) DOD began a process for projecting its future spending by using more realistic funding assumptions; (4) DOD did not fully implement its acquisition work-force reduction plans; (5) DOD began implementing the Defense Acquisition Workforce Improvement Act, which is intended to improve the quality of the acquisition work force; (6) the change in national security threats reduces the DOD justification for concurrent development and production of major weapons systems and supports the advisory commission's acquisition strategy that favors increased prototype usage; (7) although DOD made significant changes to its acquisition management structure and system, the success of those changes will depend on strong leadership, strengthened internal controls, and the free-flow of information; and (8) DOD implemented such initiatives to improve its relationship with the defense industry as integrating a finance plan, developing a contractor risk assessment guide, establishing defense enterprise programs, using commercial products, and consolidating certain acquisition activities.
