Contingency Contracting operations are increasingly the major source of support and provisioning in forward theaters, especially in light of reductions in organic (non-contracted) support capabilities. Recently, theater combatant commanders have come to rely on contingency contracting officers to support coalition forces, and concurrently, to achieve a transformation of the economic landscape essential for achieving theater objectives. But, critics of recent operations cite deficiencies in DoD's ability to effectively and efficiently conduct a coordinated contracting support effort that integrates the combatant commander's theater objectives with the myriad stakeholders deemed essential for success. Can we, the military, achieve better results? The author contends that with proper understanding of integrated planning and execution, contingency contracting operations can, and will, provide significant leverage for achieving the combatant commander's objectives. 2004 2012-03-14T16:58:27Z 2012-03-14T16:58:27Z 2004 Technical Report http://hdl.handle.net/10945/351 ocm62323543 NPS-AM-05-002 Approved for public release, distribution unlimited vii, 25 p.: ill col. application/pdf application/pdf Monterey, California.
