Describe what role the Undersecretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics fills.

/in /by

We will shift gears a little this week and look at the way DoD acquisition takes place, including who is responsible for DoD acquisition and how certain groups decide which acquisitions will move forward and in what manner.

The reality of acquisitions in the DoD is that many different working parts must come together for a program to receive approval and funding to move forward.

This week we will take that idea to the next step by laying the groundwork to being the acquisition process.

But for this week, as you examined the lesson, you have to choose one of three questions to address.

So, pick one of the three questions from this week to answer:

1. Explain both the military and civilian Acquisition Authority Chain.

2. Describe what role the Undersecretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics fills.

3. Define the Defense Acquisition Board and the Integrated Product Team.
