Military Project Management Handbook

This work applies the theory and practice of project management to today's restructured, quality-oriented DoD systems acquisition environment. It provides a useful "how-to" perspective for mid- and upper-level project and systems managers in the DoD, as well as defence contractors in the private sectors. Topics covered include integrated product development, simultaneous engineering, cooperative R & D manufacturing technology, integrated weapon system management, and international strategic alliances. The information reflects such major defense changes as the DoD 5000 series directive and FAR revisions. Offering the practical viewpoint of authors highly experienced in the military and defence industries, this is a detailed reference on all aspects of military project planning, management and control problems, and decision making.
