  1. The Future of Competitive Sourcing 26 August, 2005 “Strengthening the Government-Industry Partnership”

  2. Comp. Sourcing Opportunities • Presidential and OSD direction drives opportunities • BRAC initiative toward joint basing may open opportunities for consolidation of common functions • Limited budget encourages innovative solutions • Process improvements

  3. Comp. Sourcing Observations • Disconnect between govt and industry perceptions of CS • Govt wants to save money and preserve capability • Industry wants long term, profitable business venture • Govt often doesn’t know true cost of operation(s) • Better baseline metrics would provide: • Current cost and capability • Success criteria for competitive sourcing • Comprehensive, clear PWS (SOW) essential! • Process must be open, continuous, and independent to break through rice bowl mentality

  4. Competitive Sourcing Challenges • CULTURE • Resistance to change – change is hard! • Perception of A-76 encroaching on traditional military functions? • Future total force (Guard and Reserve) competes with industry? • Legal restrictions: Title 10, “deployability” • Problems of CS seem to transcend the services; it’s an inter-related and inter-dependent issue, especially at the Joint level • Govt and industry need a common language and common understanding of CS to partner effectively
