Summary This five day course examines the components and characteristics of effective acquisition planning. Emphasis is placed on the role of capabilities based planning in the defense acquisition decision making process, and cost, budget and funding considerations are addressed. Factors for effective risk management and decision making in complex situations will be considered. Participants will complete integrated group exercises designed to provide the opportunity for practical application of the key concepts and planning methods discussed throughout the week. Improvement of defense acquisition management systems in the participant nation will enhance the U.S. Government’s security sector objectives at the national and regional level. Additionally, this course will help build the intellectual capital of the Naval Postgraduate School faculty and students confirmed to support this effort.
