An analysis of the effectiveness of the U.S. Navy's strategic sourcing policy for service contracts

Abstract

Recent research conducted at the Naval Postgraduate School has proven that applying a pricing optimization model to Base Operations Support Services (BOSS) contracts on U.S. Air Force installations results in both significant cost savings and optimization of contracting resources. This project attempts to prove that similar improvements can be made by applying the same model to installation service contracts for use by the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC).
