Synopsis "The Impact of the Packard Commission's Recommendations on Reducing Cost Overruns in Major Defense Acquisitions Programs"

The phenomenon of cost overruns in Department of Defense acquisitionprograms has been a problem for decades. In fact, regulations to controldefense procurements extend as far back as the 1940's. However, thesepolicies have accomplished little in controlling or reducing the problem. A 1993Rand Corporation study discussed the extent of cost growth in the DoD andindicated that cost growth has fluctuated around 20 percent since the mid 1960'sand that little improvement has occurred over time (Drezner and others, 1993:2).Other research indicates that the average cost overrun on DoD acquisitioncontracts is approximately 40 percent (Gansler, 1989:4). However onemeasures the unplanned cost increases (growth or overruns to be explainedlater in this thesis) is academic; the magnitude of the problem persists and isreadily seen as 20 to 40 percent can represent a notable loss.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
