In Nov. 1997, the Sec. of Defense issued his Defense Reform Initiative (DRI) Report outlining a plan for reforming DoD's business affairs. To implement the report's initiatives, the Sec. established a Defense Management Council and chartered it with responsibility for overseeing the effort and serving as his internal board of directors for management. This report discusses (1) actions taken through the DRI management structure to facilitate achieving the program's objectives, and (2) progress made in implementing individual reform initiatives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To carry out our defense strategy into the 2lst century with military forces able to meet the challenges of the new era, there is no alternative to achieving fundamental reform in how the Defense Department conducts business. DoD's current organization, infrastructure, legal and regulatory structure, and business practices were developed over the course of the Cold War, often through accretion. The Cold War was an era of great danger but relative stability. In contrast, the new era is one of rapid change and unpredictability. Our military forces and our private sector defense industry have made great strides in adjusting to this dynamic new world, becoming more agile and responsive. But much of the rest of our defense establishment remains frozen in Cold War structures and practices. DoD has labored under support systems and business practices that are at least a generation out of step with modern corporate America. DoD support systems and practices that were once state- of-the-art are now antiquated compared with the systems and practices in place in the corporate world, while other systems were developed in their own defense-unique culture and have never corresponded with the best business practices of the private sector. This cannot and will not continue. This Defense Reform Initiative reflects the insights of numerous business leaders who have restructured and downsized their corporations and not only survived but thrived in a rapidly changing marketplace.

This book was released on 1998 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Secretary's November 10, 1997, DRI was DOD'S latest effort to reform operations and processes. The report was an outgrowth of recommendations made in the Report of the Quadrennial Defense Review. The Quadrennial Defense Review report noted that, while DOD had reduced active duty personnel by 32 percent between 1989 and 1997, it had reduced the number of people performing infrastructure functions by only 28 percent. That report called for significant additional reductions in military and civilian personnel. Reductions called for by the Quadrennial Defense Review and others already planned by DOD would reduce military and DOD civilian personnel end strength levels by an additional 59,000 and 130,000 positions, respectively, below their fiscal year 1998 levels.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I am pleased to be here today to present our observations, based on past and ongoing work, on the Department of Defense's (DOD) latest reform initiatives. These initiatives are described in the Defense Reform Initiative (DRI) Report, which was issued by DOD in November 1997. DOD is attempting to bring about a revolution in its business and support operations by identifying and adopting the best business practices from the private sector. Specifically, it is proposing to: reengineer many of its business processes; consolidate and reorganize DOD'S headquarters elements and defense agencies, including the Office of the Secretary of Defense; increase the use of the Office of Management and Budget (0MB) A-76 process to compete DOD'S commercial activities; and conduct two additional rounds of base realignment and closures (BRAC). These actions are intended to reduce the cost of DOD'S business and support activities so that operations and maintenance funds can be freed up to support weapons modernization and readiness needs. In announcing this hearing, you expressed concern about DOD'S record of executing programs designed to achieve infrastructure savings and the potential impact on readiness accounts if current reform initiatives falter in execution. In that context, my comments today will focus on the (1) risks associated with reducing budgets before savings are achieved, (2) challenges associated with implementing DOD'S various business process reengineering initiatives, (3) opportunities to capitalize on consolidation and regionalization opportunities, and (4) underlying management problems that need to be addressed in implementing the reform initiatives. Before discussing my specific observations, I would like to briefly summarize my key points.
