        Abstract
        This article presents the results of our empirical study of current management practices in services acquisition in the U.S. Army. In this study, we developed and used a web-based survey to collect primary data on the acquisition strategy, procurement methods, and contract types used at army installations. Specifically, we studied the current management practices in such areas as life cycle approach, project management, organization/management structure, and training provided to services acquisition personnel.
        Description
        An analysis of the implications of different deficiencies of services acquisitions in the U.S. Army, as well as the effectiveness of current contract management processes and recommendations for improvement.
