New Pentagon report changes DOD acquisition and tech approach
The Pentagon has released its long-anticipated report detailing plans to restructure the organizations that manage acquisition and technology research for the Department of Defense.
The so-called Section 901 report, officially titled “Restructuring the Department of Defense Acquisition, Technology and Logistics Organization and Chief Management Officer Organization,” was delivered to Congress on Aug. 1.
The basic structures of the reorg were set by the 2017 National Defense Authorization Act. Section 901 of the NDAA mandated the breakup of AT&L and the creation of a chief management officer position within DOD.
