Historical Cost Growth of Completed Weapon System Programs

Historical Cost Growth of Completed Weapon System Programs

Mark V Arena; Robert S Leonard; Sheila E Murray; Obaid Younossi

RAND
2006
pokkari
Our analysis shows that the Department of Defense (DoD) and the military departments have generally underestimated the cost of buying new weapon systems and that this growth is higher than previously thought. It indicates a systematic bias toward underestimating costs and substantial uncertainty in estimating the final cost of a weapon system.

Why Has the Cost of Fixed-wing Aircraft Risen?

Why Has the Cost of Fixed-wing Aircraft Risen?

Mark V. Arena; Obaid Younossi; Kevin Brancato; Irv Blickstein; Clifford A. Grammich

RAND
2008
pokkari
This report explores why, in recent decades, military fixed-wing aircraft costs have escalated beyond the rates of commonly used inflation indices, examining both economy-driven factors that the Services cannot control and customer-driven ones that they can. The authors found that this trend of cost increases is true for all types of aircraft

Implications of an Air Force Budget Downturn on the Aircraft Industrial Base

The U.S. Air Force is facing a number of challenges as a result of the current defense budget downturn along with the uncertainty of its timing and magnitude. RAND examined the challenge of modernizing the Air Force s aircraft fleet while trying to sustain the industrial base with limited funding, considering six budget strategies for aircraft procurement: from a new high-tech fleet to sustaining and modifying the existing one."

Management Perspectives Pertaining to Root Cause Analyses of Nunn-Mccurdy Breaches

Management Perspectives Pertaining to Root Cause Analyses of Nunn-Mccurdy Breaches

Mark V. Arena; Irv Blickstein; Abby Doll; Jeffrey A. Drezner; Jennifer Kavanagh; Daniel F. McCaffrey; Megan McKErnan; Charles Nemfakos; Jerry M. Sollinger; Daniel Tremblay; Carolyn Wong

RAND
2013
pokkari
The authors investigate whether the tenure of program managers contributes to Nunn-McCurdy breaches. They also examine the existing decentralized systems used to track cost growth to determine whether additional guidance and control are needed to make acquisition category II programs performance more transparent. Finally, they investigate whether key assumptions, so-called framing assumptions, could be useful risk management tools.

Management Perspectives Pertaining to Root Cause Analyses of Nunn-Mccurdy Breaches

Mark V. Arena; Irv Blickstein; Abby Doll; Jeffrey A. Drezner; Megan McKErnan; Charles Nemfakos; Jerry M. Sollinger; John Birkler; Gordon T. Lee; Brian McInnis; Carter C. Price; Erin York

RAND
2014
pokkari
The authors explore defense contractor motivations and identify mechanisms that might more closely align those incentives with Department of Defense goals. They also analyze major defense acquisition programs to determine if it is possible to identify programs that might incur a future Nunn-McCurdy breach by reviewing a number of acquisition programs that have incurred breaches and analyzing them for common characteristics.

Pooling Health Insurance Risks

Mark V. Pauly

AEI Press

How are the costs of health insurance premiums determined? Should costs vary according to indicators of risk? How much do premiums vary with risk? Do the healthy subsidize the unhealthy? Should public subsidies vary according to economic status and risk? This book examines these questions.

The Hughes Court: Volume 11

The Hughes Court: Volume 11

Mark V. Tushnet

Cambridge University Press
2025
pokkari
The Hughes Court: From Progressivism to Pluralism, 1930 to 1941 describes the closing of one era in constitutional jurisprudence and the opening of another. This comprehensive study of the Supreme Court from 1930 to 1941 – when Charles Evans Hughes was Chief Justice – shows how nearly all justices, even the most conservative, accepted the broad premises of a Progressive theory of government and the Constitution. The Progressive view gradually increased its hold throughout the decade, but at its end, interest group pluralism began to influence the law. By 1941, constitutional and public law was discernibly different from what it had been in 1930, but there was no sharp or instantaneous Constitutional Revolution in 1937 despite claims to the contrary. This study supports its conclusions by examining the Court's work in constitutional law, administrative law, the law of justiciability, civil rights and civil liberties, and statutory interpretation.

Home is not a place, it's a feeling.Jason Hildebrandt didn't have a care in the world. Living in the city, he had a beautiful home, a fantastic career, friends and the freedom to not have to hide who he was. That was before his phone rang early one morning, calling him back to the tiny town he grew up in, where secrets are behind every smile and neighborly concern is merely a way of gathering information.
