| Summary |
During the next administration, DoD needs to continue to implement business reforms that save money and improve effectiveness. Not long after the new administration's senior staff is in place, the deputy secretary of defense (who currently serves as the department's chief management officer) will probably call a meeting to formulate an agenda. Similar meetings may occur in the military departments. This paper seeks to assist those meetings by providing a menu of higher-priority candidates for business reform, defined here as changes in business practices rather than the termination or restructuring of lower-priority programs. Business reforms are particularly important because they can save money while improving, or at least not reducing, mission effectiveness. The paper draws on research from many organizations. It also reflects my own experience with DoD financial and reform initiatives, experience that spans four decades and included service as DoD's comptroller and chief financial officer from 2009 to 2014 |
