Description

The Department of Defense (DOD) requested $168 billion in FY 2014 to develop, test, and acquire weapong systems and other products and equipment. About 40% of that total is for major defense acquisitions programs or ACAT I programs. DOD also invests in other, non-major ACAT II and III programs that are generally less costly at the individual program level. These programs typically have fewer reporting requirements and are overseen at lower organizational levels, although they may have annual funding needs that are just as significant. This report addresses (1) the extent to which information is available on the number, cost, and performance of ACAT II and III programs; and (2) factors that affected the performance of selected ACAT II and III programs. Tables and figures. This is a print on demand report.
