Analysis of DoD's Commercial Activities Program

Résumé du livre

In 1955, the Office of Management and Budget (0MB) implemented a policy known as the Commercial Activities (CA) Program. This program enables the private sector to compete with government organizations in providing goods and services when it is appropriate and economical to do so. The objective is to promote an efficient support structure through competition. This research memorandum is part of a CNA-initiated research effort examining the DoD Commercial Activities program. Most of our previous research has examined the Navy CA program. This paper presents the results of all completed DoD comprehensive A-76 competitions between 1978 and 1994.
