@Section809Panel The Panel sunsets tonite. The Commissioners & Staff spent 3 years delivering 4 reports & a Roadmap to put DoD’s Acq Sys on a warfooting to deliver capability to warfighters inside the turn of near peer competitors & nonstate actors. SECDEF & Congress take action.

"Discipline in DoD’s spending & procurement has come to be the rule and not the exception. How America’s largest bureaucracy got there is a story of tough accountability, right incentives, & tenacious focus on the needs of troops themselves." @DefenseOne https://t.co/OkUuLszAY7

"The sad truth is, unless government and contractors step up and persistently advocate for change, there’s a high likelihood that the panel’s recommendations will die on the vine." @FederalNewsNet https://t.co/9YjWHUfozF

"White House is leaning toward a continuing resolution instead of a broader deal. But that’s a no-go with McConnell, who told reporters it would be “unacceptable ... from a defense point of view,” as would sequestration." @reporterjoe @defense_news https://t.co/dQE3bsSD1m

“Policy does not drive results. People drive results. If you’re putting a dashboard in front of somebody, but they don’t know how it was created, what fed up into it, they may make potentially dangerous decisions.” @FederalNewsNet @jheckmanWFED https://t.co/mX2YigBHva

"To move DoD into the future, panel recommends creating 2 levels of coordinated portfolios. Requirements & budgeting coordinated across both levels would reduce problems such as inadequate/misaligned funding or redundant capabilities." @BreakingDefense https://t.co/Cd72ic6NEm
