Book Description
The Department of Defense (DOD) reports data about the operational readiness of its forces. In 1999, Congress directed DOD to create a comprehensive readiness system with timely, objective, and accurate data. In response, DOD started to develop the Defense Readiness Reporting System (DRRS). After 7 years, DOD has incrementally fielded some capabilities, and, through fiscal year 2008, reported obligating about $96.5 million. GAO was asked to review the program including the extent that DOD has (1) effectively managed and overseen DRRS acquisition and deployment and (2) implemented features of DRRS consistent with legislative requirements and DOD guidance. GAO compared DRRS acquisition disciplines, such as requirements development, test management, and DRRS oversight activities, to DOD and related guidance, and reviewed the system's current and intended capabilities relative to legislative requirements and DOD guidance. We did not evaluate DOD's overall ability to assess force readiness or the extent that readiness data reflects capabilities, vulnerabilities, or performance issues. GAO is making recommendations to address the risks facing DOD in acquiring and developing DRRS and increase the chance of success. DOD agreed or partially agreed with three of our eight recommendations, and disagreed with the remaining five because it stated that it was already taking actions in these areas.

Managing Military Readiness
Author: Institute for National Strategic Studies (U.S.)
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781717247582
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 66
Book Description
This paper presents an analytic framework that builds from previous work to yield the systematic and defendable readiness analysis that must underlie decisions ranging from budget allocation to force employment and even strategy development. To manage readiness, the Department of Defense (DOD) must balance the supply and demand of deployable forces around the world. The readiness of an individual unit is the result of a series of time-intensive force generation processes that ultimately combine qualified people, working equipment, and unit training to produce military capabilities suitable for executing the defense strategy. Therefore, managing readiness is as much about understanding the complexities of human resource management and the technical details of weapons system availability as it is about measuring the ability of U.S. forces to support the national security strategy. Policymakers, military members and command leaders, plus senior Department of Defense team staff, ROTC, military science, and human resource management students may be interested in this illustrated resource about military readiness prior to national security situation deployments

Book Description
Addresses the challenges DoD faces to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of its weapon systems acquisition and contract mgmt. Weapon systems programs continue to take longer to develop, cost more, and deliver fewer quantities and capabilities than originally planned. DoD also continues to face challenges managing service contracts and contractors. The current fiscal environment combined with operational demands elevates the need to improve weapon systems acquisition and contract mgmt. DoD has taken steps in response to recommendations made over the past decade. DoD needs to: translate policy into practice; ensure steps undertaken result in intended outcomes; and conduct a reexamination of its reliance on contractors. Illus.
