Book Synopsis Defense Acquisitions: Sound Practices Critical to Ensuring Value for the Defense Logistics Agency's Acquisitions by : William M. Solis
Book excerpt: The nation's ability to project and sustain military power depends on effective logistics. As the DoD'¿¿s largest combat support agency, providing worldwide logistics support in both peacetime and wartime, the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) supplies almost every consumable item the military services need to operate, from Meals Ready-to Eat to jet fuel. This testimony identifies the challenges DoD faces in ensuring DLA gets value for the taxpayer's dollar and obtains quality commodities in a cost-efficient and effective manner. It focuses on sound practices that have been identified regarding obtaining value when contracting and how they can also apply to DLA's acquisition of commodities. Charts and tables.
