Book excerpt: Many responsible elements of the Department of Defense (DoD), Congress, and the defense industry have expressed concern that the DoD, in downsizing and restructuring in recent years, is not cutting back on infrastructure, or non- combat elements, to a degree that is appropriate for the extent it is drawing down the combat force structure. Separately, proponents of the acquisition reform that is now under way question the need for DoD's maintaining as much infrastructure in-house as it has. Infrastructural elements are thus expected to get a more critical look in further rounds of budget-cutting. The Department of the Navy (DON) is undertaking such a critical examination-both to make appropriate preparations for the 1995 round of Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) and to meet its need to make the best use of its resources for the longer term. In its examination, DON has divided its infrastructure into two parts. One part comprises research, development, and technology (RD & T); the other part comprises engineering, production, and support (EP & S). The purpose of this study is to offer analysis that will aid DON in its review of its RD & T infrastructure. More specifically, we present a framework for setting priorities for funding different lines of RD & T, and we offer our best application of that framework (Part I), we discuss ways in which the Navy might increase the efficiency and effectiveness of its RD & T investments-mostly through flexible insourcing and outsourcing strategies, which are sometimes collectively referred to as "smart buying" or "strategic sourcing." We use the term "strategic sourcing" (Part II).

This book was released on 1995 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report suggests ways in which the Dept. of the Navy might realize more value from its increasingly constrained research, development, and technology (RD&T) dollars. The study was motivated by the Navy's immediate policy needs in connection with the 1995 round of Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) and its longer-term need to make the best use of its resources. Suggestions are presented in three parts. First, the authors develop and apply a framework for setting funding priorities in the Naval RD&T infrastructure. Second, the authors discuss alternative RD&T procurement arrangements that are seeing increasing use in the private sector and that have been used in various parts of the government. These are commonly called "smart buying," but the authors use the term "strategic sourcing." Third, the authors present a speculative combination of the priority-setting and strategic-sourcing considerations of the first two parts. Using a reinterpretation of the orthogonal plot developed earlier in the report, it suggests a way to help determine which parts of the Naval RD&T infrastructure are best suited for alternative procurement arrangements. It also suggests a way to determine which facilities might be involved.

Book excerpt: The Arroyo Center has developed a methodology to identify opportunities for the Army to use collaboration with industry to more effectively achieve its research and development goals. The framework prioritizes technologies by Army utility and by market breadth, and it allows superimposition of different management approaches. The author applies the framework to Army technologies and identifies those that are the most appropriate candidates for collaborative development with the commercial sector.
