Book excerpt: Excerpt from Review of the Defense Printing Service: Hearing Before the Joint Committee on Printing, Congress of the United States, One Hundred Third Congress, First Session, July 15, 1993 The committee met, pursuant to notice, at 10 a.m., in room SR-301, Russell Senate Office Building, Hon. Wendell H. Ford [chairman of the committee] presiding. Present: Senator Ford and Representative Roberts. Opening Statement Of Chairman Wendell H. Ford, A. U. S. Senator From Kentucky The Chairman. Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. I am delighted to see such an interesting crowd this morning. Some are small business people from around the country, and we are delighted that you would take time from your schedules to come and visit with us at this hearing this morning. This is the third hearing on the Defense Printing Service this committee has held in as many years. I regret to say that many of the problems of duplication of effort and high prices foreseen a year or two ago are materializing. The Defense Printing Service came to life under President Bush and Defense Secretary Dick Cheney. It is the consolidation of most military printing activities under Navy command. The Joint Committee on Printing charters printing plants for the entire Federal Government. Fully half of these were chartered as Army, Navy, Air Force, and Defense Logistics Agency plants and are now organized as the Defense Printing Service. The bulk of the work of the Defense Printing Service supports the administrative activities of the Defense Department. Some of it is classified and quick turnaround, and much of it is not. An additional 25 plants are specifically chartered for classified work at military and national security facilities outside DPS. Ships at sea, air, and Army units facing potential combat situations also have their own printing and internal information distribution system. It is important to note that the work in these facilities is not an issue at the hearing today. We were to have other members of the Joint Committee on Printing this morning, and the reconciliation conference committee started, and many on this committee are on that. I have two statements from members of the committee. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book In Defense of Elitism written by Joel Stein and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2019-10-22 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Thurber finalist and former star Time columnist Joel Stein comes a "brilliant exploration" (Walter Isaacson) of America's political culture war and a hilarious call to arms for the elite. "I can think of no one more suited to defend elitism than Stein, a funny man with hands as delicate as a baby full of soft-boiled eggs." —Jimmy Kimmel, host of Jimmy Kimmel Live! The night Donald Trump won the presidency, our author Joel Stein, Thurber Prize finalist and former staff writer for Time Magazine, instantly knew why. The main reason wasn't economic anxiety or racism. It was that he was anti-elitist. Hillary Clinton represented Wall Street, academics, policy papers, Davos, international treaties and the people who think they're better than you. People like Joel Stein. Trump represented something far more appealing, which was beating up people like Joel Stein. In a full-throated defense of academia, the mainstream press, medium-rare steak, and civility, Joel Stein fights against populism. He fears a new tribal elite is coming to replace him, one that will fend off expertise of all kinds and send the country hurtling backward to a time of wars, economic stagnation and the well-done steaks doused with ketchup that Trump eats. To find out how this shift happened and what can be done, Stein spends a week in Roberts County, Texas, which had the highest percentage of Trump voters in the country. He goes to the home of Trump-loving Dilbert cartoonist Scott Adams; meets people who create fake news; and finds the new elitist organizations merging both right and left to fight the populists. All the while using the biggest words he knows.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GAO discussed issues concerning the Department of Defense's (DOD) printing and duplicating operations. GAO noted that: (1) DOD could have saved over 60 percent of its total printing and duplicating expenditures if it had procured printing and duplicating services through the Government Printing Office (GPO) and not performed the work in-house; (2) the DOD methodology and pricing scheme was reasonable and indicated the advantages of commercially-procured printing and duplicating services; (3) the level of printing and duplicating orders DOD procures through GPO may be overstated, since its accounting systems do not classify high duplicating orders as printing orders; (4) although the Defense Printing Service (DPS) acknowledged that potential savings could be achieved through GPO-procured printing services, it disagreed that duplicating services could be procured more economically through GPO; (5) although DOD has continued to down-size its printing and duplicating operations and personnel, DPS has not been able to avoid operating losses; (6) DOD has not sufficiently followed congressional directives requiring it to procure increased amounts of printing and duplicating work through GPO; and (7) DOD Joint Computer-Aided Acquisition and Logistics (JCALS) Program contract modifications could be inconsistent with its authorizing legislation.

Download or read book Defense Additive Manufacturing written by United States Government Accountability Office and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-10-05 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Additive manufacturing-building products layer-by-layer in a process often referred to as three-dimensional (3D) printing-has the potential to improve aspects of DOD's mission and operations. DOD and other organizations, such as America Makes, are determining how to address challenges to adopt this technology throughout the department. Senate Report 113-44 directed DOD to submit a briefing or report on additive manufacturing to the Senate Armed Services Committee that describes three elements. Senate Report 113-176 included a provision that GAO review DOD's use of additive manufacturing. This report addresses the extent to which (1) DOD's briefing to the Committee addresses the directed elements; (2) DOD has taken steps to implement additive manufacturing to improve performance, improve combat capability, and achieve cost savings; and (3) DOD uses mechanisms to coordinate and systematically track additive manufacturing efforts across the department. GAO reviewed and analyzed relevant DOD documents and interviewed DOD and academia officials.
