Defense Acquisition Organizations: Status of Workforce Reductions

  Premium   Download PDF Now (24 pages)
Report Type Reports and Testimonies
Report Date June 29, 1998
Report No. NSIAD-98-161
Subject
Summary:

The Defense Department (DOD) has been reducing its acquisition workforce at a faster rate than its overall workforce and is on schedule to accomplish a 25-percent reduction by the end of fiscal year 2000. However, potential savings from these reductions cannot be precisely tracked, and some of the potential savings may be offset by other unanticipated costs. DOD developed a new definition for the acquisition workforce and is using it to identify persons who do acquisition work throughout the military. DOD is also exploring a process by which it can, for the first time, link management of the acquisition workforce to DOD's overall manpower and budget processes. Although far from guaranteed, success in this area could allow better planning and budgeting for workforce training and tracking changes in the workforce. Furthermore, GAO's analysis of DOD's efforts to streamline and consolidate the research, development, test, and evaluation segment of its acquisition organizations confirmed GAO's earlier conclusion that these initiatives have bee unable to overcome many obstacles.
