The following article is taken as an excerpt from the proceedings of the annual Acquisition Research Program. This annual event showcases the research projects funded through the Acquisition Research Program at the Graduate School of Business and Public Policy at the Naval Postgraduate School. Featuring keynote speakers, plenary panels, multiple panel sessions, a student research poster show and social events, the Annual Acquisition Research Symposium offers a candid environment where high-ranking Department of Defense (DoD) officials, industry officials, accomplished faculty and military students are encouraged to collaborate on finding applicable solutions to the challenges facing acquisition policies and processes within the DoD today. By jointly and publicly questioning the norms of industry and academia, the resulting research benefits from myriad perspectives and collaborations which can identify better solutions and practices in acquisition, contract, financial, logistics and program management.

Proceedings Paper (for Acquisition Research Program) ; The federal government spends an incredible amount of money on the purchase of goods and services. In 2003, that spending was $230 billion, or 2% of the United States'' GDP. Although it has always been the stated policy of the United States Government not to produce commercial goods or services that are available on the open market, in practice, the government often duplicates functions the private sector can provide. ; Naval Postgraduate School Acquisition Research Program

Proceedings Paper (for Acquisition Research Program) ; I think this conference is a very important first step in the right direction. Obviously, much more is required in this area to be able to capitalize on what the military clearly need in the coming decades. I think this is very important; very much worth the effort that people are putting in here today. But even more important is what we can do in terms of the future; and I hope all of you will join me in trying to achieve our objective over the coming years. ; Naval Postgraduate School Acquisition Research Program
