Extreme Cost Growth: Themes from Six U.S. Air Force Major Defense Acquisition Programs. RR-630-AF.. Santa Mon-ica, CA : RAND Corporation , 2015
From the report: “RAND recently analyzed cost growth trends in current U.S. Air Force major defense acquisition programs (MDAPs) using Selected Acquisition Report (SAR) data.1 As a companion to that analysis, this report identifies and characterizes conditions present in six recent Air Force MDAPs that experienced extreme cost growth.2 It is intended to supplement the quantitative analysis of 36 programs from the RAND SAR database reported in the companion document with a deeper detailed case-study examination of six of the most poorly performing programs to add specific program circumstances to provide a richer context for the quantitative analysis. This research was commissioned by the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Acquisition Integration, Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Acquisition.”
