Achieving Effective Acquisition of Information Technology in the Department of Defense, Committee on Improving Processes and Policies for the Acquisition and Test of Information Technologies in the Department of Defense; National Research Council, 2009.

  • “In the military, information technology (IT) has enabled profound advances in weapons systems and the management and operation of the defense enterprise. A significant portion of the Department of Defense (DOD) budget is spent on capabilities acquired as commercial IT commodities, developmental IT systems that support a broad range of warfighting and functional applications, and IT components embedded in weapons systems. The ability of the DOD and its industrial partners to harness and apply IT for warfighting, command and control and communications, logistics, and transportation has contributed enormously to fielding the world’s best defense force.”
