As economic pressure grows and budgets shrink, procurement officials need to revise their negotiating strategy with contractors so they get more for their countries’ money.
Defense agencies receiving a surge in COVID-19 stimulus funds must urgently adopt new patterns of procurement.
Militaries are at risk of missing their operational targets. Three HR reforms from the private sector can ensure they have the people and skills they need.
The acquisitions process is notoriously time-consuming and onerous, but governments can attract stronger bids—and get quicker results—by taking action in five key areas.
Startups are revolutionizing nearly every segment of the US economy. To partner with more of these companies, the government must communicate with them more effectively and modify its approach to contracting.
