Acquisition Implications of DoD Strategic Guidance & the FY2013 Budge

On Feb 6th CSIS hosted the Acting Under Secretary of Defense, AT&L, Frank Kendall, for a talk on how Acquisition is likely to fare in the current austere budget atmosphere. 

He provided no specifics about individual programs. However, he did indicate that DoD was assuming that there would be no dramatic Sequestration cuts, and that all programs would have to prove their worth early and often in order to continue funding.

An audio version of the talk (duration: 1hr:02min) is available from the CSIS. Condensed,bulletized notes can be downloaded from www.NotableThinking.com
