Spin On, Not Off

By James Hasik

Spinning off Oshkosh Defense would be bad for the Department of Defense.   Last summer, as Sandra Erwin of National Defense reported, the US Army consciously warned American truck manufacturers of an impending slowdown in its purchasing. The industry is now so deep in that slowdown that speculation about restructuring has become old hat. But today’s Wall […]

BBP + DII = Destruction or Creation?

By James Hasik

  The Pentagon is yet to explain how its twin defense-industrial strategies will interact.    The Pentagon’s Better Buying Power (BBP) initiative, launched four years ago and recently in its third version, is meant to unlock the government’s monopsony power in its relations with industry. BBP speaks considerably of improving productivity, but the details of […]

Third Offset Strategy, Second Adversary

By James Hasik, Alex Ward

As Defense Industry Daily put it, this has caused some “tension with the defense industry amid the onset […]

By James Hasik, Dave Foster

The Pentagon needs a lighter touch with low-volume vendors.   Last week, in an essay on how software costs are eating the war effort, we wrote about a “bold industrial strategy” proposed by Atlantic Council advisor Harlan Ullman. As he wrote,        one solution is to shift conceptually and practically from a defense industrial base […]
