Acquisition in Transition (2008 PSC procurement policy survey)

In this fourth biennial Procurement Policy Survey, the Professional Services Council and Grant Thornton LLP interviewed 28 government acquisition professionals, including senior procurement executives, front-line contracting professionals and congressional staff. The survey focuses on current challenges and successes and advice to the new presidential administration. Respondents identified workforce issues as the number one challenge for the new administration. They also pointed to a more holistic approach to oversight as a critical objective. Many suggested that there be a moratorium on "new initiatives" to give recently implemented ones a chance to demonstrate value.
