. @SECWAR “Today, I’d like to talk to you about an adversary that poses a threat to the United States of America. This adversary is one of the world’s last bastions of central planning. It governs by dictating five-year plans. From a single capital, it attempts to impose its demands across time zones, continents, oceans and beyond with brutal consistency… The adversary I'm talking about is much closer to home. It’s the Pentagon bureaucracy.”
Replying to @DOWResponse @SecWar
I just left a meeting with 10+ high level defense engineers and spent 45 min. agreeing that what was stated before the meeting was correct. No one, absolutely no one, in the meeting argued against the request. The entire 7+ man hours, $1,200+ was spent on how to get the paperwork done to meet DOD requirements. 😩😩😩

I had one whereas the DOD cancelled a MilSpec for a paint and I was told by the Government’s representative that it was my responsibility to tell the DOD that the DOD had canceled the spec. Things that make you go UMMM
GSA involvement hinders DoD as with the FAR needs a massive overhaul.
