,armed ,services of the ,house of ,representatives held a series of hearings in #bjac1 #bjad1 and #bjae gathering testimony from key acquisition leaders and experts4 ,it is clear that the acquisition reform efforts of the last #ej years continue to founder because they fail to address the motivational and environmental factors in which they must be implemented4 ,the acquisition system1 though frustrating to all1 is in one sense in equilibrium4 ,the acquisition system provides enough benefits to proponents and opponents to continue1 with only minor changes1 despite its shortcomings4 7#b7 ,the ,armed ,forces continue to pursue too many defense acquisitions1 chasing too few dollars4 ,consequently1 there remains a vast difference between the budgeting plans of the ,department and the reality of the cost of its systems or the services it acquires4 7#c7 ,to keep programs alive1 the ,department develops and ,congress accepts fragile acquisition strategies that downplay technical issues and assume only successful outcomes from high-risk efforts4 ,as a result1 the ,department often ends up with too few weapons1 with performance that falls short1 that are difficult and costly to maintain1 delivered late at too high a cost4 ,congressional and ,department of ,defense leadership have limited insight into the services acquired or what services need to be acquired in the future4 ,furthermore1 the conventional acquisition process is not agile enough for today's demands4 ,finally1 the ,department of ,defense continues to struggle with financial management and auditability1 affecting its ability to control costs1 ensure basic accountability1 anticipate future costs and claims on the budget1 and measure performance4 7#d7 ,too often today1 all stakeholders in the ,department of ,defense1 ,congress1 and industry1 accept that-- 7,a7 for the acquisition process1 success is defined as maximizing technical performance or protecting organizational interests1 without regard to funding disruptions and delivery delays of needed capability or services to the warfighter2 and 7,b7 the acquisition process is-- 7i7 reactive1 meaning issues are addressed late and at great cost only after problems are realized2 7ii7 plodding1 meaning the bureaucratic processes are sclerotic and cumbersome2 7iii7 opaque1 meaning that limiting information is necessary to protect programs2 and 7iv7 traditional1 meaning that customary approaches and suppliers are preferred over perceived risk of new or unique concepts and vendors4 7#e7 ,today1 the ,united ,states is at a cross-roads1 and if changes to the acquisition system are not made soon1 the trend of fewer and more costly systems and services that fall short of the needs of the ,armed ,forces will continue4 ,congress1 the ,department of ,defense1 and industry all have a stake in making positive changes4 ,each plays a role in contributing to the current system4 ,each gains benefits from that system1 but each is frustrated by it as well4 7#f7 ,the acquisition improvement effort of the ,committee on ,armed ,services of the ,house of ,representatives proposes a different approach from previous efforts by seeking to improve the environment 7i4e41 statutes1 regulations1 processes1 and culture7 driving acquisition decisions in the ,department of ,defense1 industry1 and ,congress4 ,the ,committee has solicited input from industry and the ,department of ,defense1 as well as others in ,congress1 and will continue to do so4 ,the ,committee recognizes that there are no silver bullets that can immediately fix the current acquisition system in a holistic and long-standing manner4 ,therefore1 the reform effort will be an ongoing and iterative process that will result in legislation not only this year1 but will be embedded in the ,committee's annual and regular work4 7b7 ,sense of congress on the tenets of an improved acquisition system ,it is the sense of ,congress that all stakeholders in the acquisition system--the ,department of ,defense1 ,congress1 and industry--should be governed by the following tenets3 7#a7 ,success ,success in the acquisition system means the timely delivery of affordable and effective military equipment and services4 7#b7 ,proactive ,the acquisition system should be proactive1 meaning-- 7,a7 the system should recognize that development and acquisition problems can occur2 and 7,b7 officials at all levels should be empowered to solve problems and reduce risks by surfacing issues early and honestly and taking action to resolve them4 7#c7 ,agile ,the acquisition system should be agile1 meaning that needed program adjustments to both respond to emerging threats and the rapid pace of technological change and to address development or production issues should be proposed and adjudicated quickly4 7#d7 ,transparent ,the acquisition system should be transparent1 meaning that-- 7,a7 all decision makers should be given useful1 relevant1 credible1 and reliable information when making commitments2 7,b7 ,government and industry communication should be clear and open2 and 7,c7 the ,department of ,defense should produce auditable financial

significant and repeated attempts at acquisition reform1 the ,department of ,defense still experiences case after case of expensive weapon system acquisition failures4 ,the ,department of ,defense has a track record of too many cancellations1 schedule slippages1 cost over-runs1 and failures to deliver timely solutions to the requirements of the ,armed ,forces4 ,this situation is unacceptable4 ,for example1 according to the ,final ,report of the #bjaj ,army ,acquisition ,review1 between #aiif and #bjaj1 the ,army expended approximately #a billion to #c billion annually on two dozen programs that were eventually cancelled4 ,no military service and no type of weapon acquisition has been immune4 7#b7 ,problems in all phases of acquisitions 7,a7 ,despite detailed weapon acquisition processes and procedures1 there is only limited discipline in starting programs4 ,many programs begin without a solid foundation4 ,they have too many requirements deemed critical1 which are driven by too many organizations and individuals4 ,approved requirements are often set with only a limited understanding of the technical feasibility of achieving them4 ,the resulting compromises of good program management and engineering judgment that allow the programs to proceed are the spackle of the acquisition system that covers up the risks and enables the system to operate4 7,b7 ,as these weapon systems proceed into engineering and manufacturing development1 they often encounter development problems leading to cost growth1 schedule delay1 and performance reductions4 ,industry and ,government officials frequently respond by taking additional development risks to resolve basic performance issues by reducing the time to analyze and assess development results1 overlapping key development efforts1 and reducing testing4 ,the ,department of ,defense and ,congress disrupt the planned funding of stable programs to find resources for troubled programs or to fund across-the-board spending cuts4 ,funding instability is the inevitable price that programs pay for survival because funding disruptions actually keep more programs alive4 7,c7 ,finally1 these weapons are often rushed into production only to encounter production problems1 and are fielded with many unknowns or deficiencies leading to significantly reduced quantities and force structure reductions4 ,the warfighter faces the challenge of operating weapons with poor reliability1 high maintenance demands1 reduced performance1 and many capability shortfalls4 7b7 ,sense of ,congress 7#a7 ,in general ,it is the sense of ,congress that1 in accordance with the tenets described in section #hjj1 to improve weapon system acquisitions1 the ,department of ,defense1 ,congress1 and industry should develop an acquisition system characterized by highly disciplined program initiation coupled with agile program execution and balanced oversight1 as described in paragraphs 7#b71 7#c71 and 7#d74 7#b7 ,highly disciplined program initiation ,an acquisition system characterized by highly disciplined program initiation means that programs do not begin engineering development until firm requirements are matched to a flexible acquisition strategy structured to develop militarily useful capability that can be delivered in a relevant period of time with available technologies1 funding1 and management capacity4 ,such a highly disciplined program initiation includes-- 7,a7 a workforce with smart requirements setters and expert buyers1 with the knowledge1 skills1 and experience to successfully plan for and execute highly complex acquisitions2 7,b7 requirements that are well-defined1 technically feasible1 and affordable2 7,c7 acquisition strategies that are designed to minimize time to market of militarily useful capability1 with the program concerned being structured so that-- 7i7 lower-risk1 technically mature capabilities are matched to delivering capability to the warfighter in the near term1 while remaining requirements are aligned and resources are programmed to support integration into later increments to meet the requirements of the ,armed ,forces2 7ii7 capabilities are approved for an increment only when their developmental risks have been appropriately reduced2 and 7iii7 increments are planned to complete engineering and manufacturing development in a reasonable period of time2 7,d7 a science and technology development enterprise that is responsive to the acquisition process before engineering and manufacturing development begins1 and sufficiently resourced to reduce risks and enable programs to make smart decisions without losing critical funds2 and 7,e7 redtape reduction in order to free up program and ,department officials to focus on their mission of defining an executable program and understanding and addressing risks4 7#c7 ,agile program execution ,an acquisition system characterized by agile program execution means a system in which acquisition speed and flexibility to make trade-offs are balanced with the need to achieve desired technical performance4 ,such agile program execution includes-- 7,a7 program managers and program officials who are expert buyers and negotiators who anticipate problems1 negotiate solutions1 and are empowered to manage2 7,b7 a preference for fixed price contracting where appropriate for the size and complexity of the work and for the nature and scope of the capabilities being developed2 7,c7 program managers who avoid increasing program risk by resisting the addition of new requirements or the reduction of developmental activities2 7,d7 empowering program managers and senior decisionmakers to make decisions easily in order to move forward with capabilities that mature quickly1 cancel those that encounter greater difficulties than expected1 and trade-off or reduce requirements to maintain cost and schedule2 7,e7 enabling program managers to focus on overcoming execution challenges and delivering success rather than concentrating on compliance with reporting1 certifications1 and other redtape2 and 7,f7 senior decisionmakers who have knowledge of demonstrated performance as programs proceed through development1 with robust developmental testing occurring before committing to production for operational use as a basis for decision making4 7#d7 ,balanced ,oversight ,an acquisition system characterized by balanced oversight means that the focus is on ensuring discipline initiating programs and that appropriate adjustments are made during development1 so that programs have the best chance to succeed4 ,such balanced oversight includes-- 7,a7 involvement by decisionmakers early to ensure that an understanding of trade-offs1 risks1 and needs are considered1 resourced1 and validated1 and that agreement is reached between the executive and legislative branches2 7,b7 acceptance by decisionmakers that complex weapon system developments are inherently risky and require expertise and flexibility to manage effectively2 7,c7 conscious decisions by decisionmakers regarding where to accept risk1 while ensuring that risk mitigation plans are resourced 7with time1 funding1 alternatives1 and competent government and contractor officials72 7,d7 measuring and monitoring by decisionmakers of the right factors1 such as technology maturation progress and systems engineering during risk reduction1 development cost growth during engineering and manufacturing development1 and reliability growth during system demonstration2 7,e7 work by ,congress and the ,department of ,defense1 once a program has begun1 to resolve issues by considering trade-offs among cost1 schedule1 and performance necessary to best support the warfighter2 and 7,f7 congressional understanding of risks and efforts to mitigate such risks even if they are through non-traditional means or other technological advances4 #hbb4 ,acquisition strategy required for each major defense acquisition program

,congress finds the following3 7#a7 ,as senior ,united ,states statesman ,dr4 ,henry ,kissinger wrote in testimony submitted to the ,senate ,armed ,services ,committee on ,january #bi1 #bjae1 ,the ,united ,states has not faced a more diverse and complex array of crises since the end of the ,second ,world ,war44 7#b7 ,the rise of non-state forces and near peer competitors has introduced destabilizing pressures around the globe4 7#c7 ,advances in information and weapons technology have reduced the time available for the ,united ,states to prepare for and respond to crises against both known and unknown threats4 7#d7 ,the importance of the maritime domain cannot be overstated4 ,as acknowledged in the ,march #bjae ,navy1 ,marine ,corps1 and ,coast ,guard maritime strategy1 ,a ,cooperative ,strategy for #bast ,century ,seapower3 ,oceans are the lifeblood of the interconnected global community''' #ij percent of trade by volume travels across the oceans4 ,approximately #gj percent of the world's population lives within #ajj miles of the coastline44 7#e7 ,the ,united ,states must be prepared to rapidly respond to crises around the world regardless of the nation's fiscal health4 7#f7 ,in this global security environment1 it is critical that the nation possess a maritime force whose mission and ethos is readiness--a fight tonight force1 forward deployed1 that can respond immediately to emergent crises across the full range of military operations around the globe either from the sea or home station4 7#g7 ,the need for such a force was recognized by the #hbnd ,congress after the major wars of the twentieth century1 when it mandated a core mission for the nation's leanest force--the ,marine ,corps--to be most ready when the nation is least ready4 7b7 ,sense of ,congress 7#a7 ,it is the sense of ,congress that-- 7,a7 the ,marine ,corps1 within the ,department of the ,navy1 remain the ,nation's expeditionary1 crisis response force2 7,b7 the need for such a force with such a capability has never been greater2 and 7,c7 accordingly1 in recognition of this need and the wisdom of the #hbnd ,congress1 the #aadth ,congress reaffirms section #ejfc of title #aj1 ,united ,states ,code1 uniquely charging the ,united ,states ,marine ,corps with this responsibility4 7#b7 ,it is further the sense of ,congress that the ,marine ,corps-- 7,a7 shall-- 7i7 be organized to include not less than three combat divisions and three air wings1 and such other land combat1 aviation1 and other services as may be organic therein2 7ii7 be organized1 trained1 and equipped to provide fleet marine forces of combined arms1 together with supporting air components1 for service with the fleet in the seizure or defense of advanced naval bases and for the conduct of such land operations as may be essential to the prosecution of a naval campaign2 and 7iii7 provide detachments and organizations for service on armed vessels of the ,navy1 shall provide security detachments for the protection of naval property at naval stations and bases1 and shall perform such other duties as the ,president may direct2 but these additional duties may not detract from nor interfere with the operations for which the ,marine ,corps is primarily organized2 7,b7 shall develop1 in coordination with the ,army and the ,air ,force1 those phases of amphibious operations that pertain to the tactics1 techniques1 and equipment used by landing forces2 and 7,c7 is responsible1 in accordance with the integrated joint mobilization plans1 for the expansion of peacetime components of the ,marine ,corps to meet the needs of war4 #ije4 ,additional requirements for streamlining of ,department of ,defense management headquarters 7a7 ,findings 7#a7 ,on ,july #ca1 #bjac1 the then ,secretary of ,defense stated that the ,department would reduce the ,department's major headquarters budgets by #bj percent''',although the #bj percent cut applies to budget dollars1 organizations will strive for a goal of #bj percent reductions in government civilians and military personnel4 ,the then ,secretary further stated that these management reforms'''will reduce the ,department's overhead and operating costs by444#aj billion over the next five years44 7#b7 ,furthermore1 the ,president's budget request for the ,department of ,defense for fiscal year #bjae stated that reductions to management headquarters staff and consolidation of duplicative efforts across the ,department would result in a savings of #e4c billion over #e years--through fiscal year #bjai4 ,however1 as noted by the ,government ,accountability ,office in a ,january #bjae report 7,,gao-#ae-aj71 the ,department accounted for #e4c billion as efficiency savings in its budget request1 but has not provided specific details on the reductions to management headquarters' staff it plans to make4 7#c7 ,in ,june #bjad1 the ,government ,accountability ,office found 7in ,,gao-#ad-dci7 that the ,department did not have an accurate accounting of the resources being devoted to management headquarters to use as a starting point for tracking reductions to such headquarters4 ,in ,april #bjae1 the ,government ,accountability ,office reported 7in ,,gao-#ae-djd,,sp7 that focusing reductions on management headquarters budgets and personnel1 which tend to be inconsistently defined and often represent a small portion of the overall headquarters1 shields much of the resources identified for potential reduction4 7b7 ,sense of congress ,it is the sense of ,congress that-- 7#a7 the ,secretary of ,defense's commitment in ,july #bjac to a goal of a #bj percent reduction in headquarters budgets and personnel and a goal of #aj billion in cost savings over five years is worthwhile and should be fully implemented2 7#b7 without a clear baseline for management headquarters1 it is difficult to demonstrate and track progress achieving actual savings2 7#c7 any reduction in personnel should not be implemented as an across-the-board cut1 but rather should be strategically designed to retain critical functions1 capabilities1 and skill sets--including but not limited to depots and the acquisition workforce--and eliminate unnecessary or redundant functions or skill sets that do not benefit or support mission requirements2 7#d7 functions should be performed at the lowest appropriate organizational level and those organizations should be empowered and held accountable2 7#e7 duplicative functions at higher level organizations should be eliminated2 and 7#f7 the movement of a function from a management headquarters to a different ,department of ,defense organization or a lower level organization does not result in an efficiency1 since the same budget is still required to perform that function4 7c7 ,requirement to implement #bj percent reduction in management headquarters functions ,section #ijd of the ,national ,defense ,authorization ,act for ,fiscal ,year #bjad
