Industry Partnerships for Crises : Defense Business Board , November 12 , 2024
From the report: “On May 16, 2024, the Deputy Secretary of Defense tasked the Defense Business Board with examining the current state of Department of Defense (DoD) dependencies on, and ability to, partner with the private sector to surge capability. The Terms of Reference (ToR) document, formally tasking the Business Operations Subcommittee, can be found in Appendix A. The primary deliverable is a set of recommendations on ways the Department can build better partnerships with the private sector for a reliable and rapid “expand-on-demand” capacity in a crisis.
While the Study takes place against the backdrop of DoD’s increased focus on the munitions industrial base owing to shortages and the increased burden of supporting U.S. allies and partners, it is not acutely scoped to munitions alone. This Study proposes actions the DoD can take today to establish, structure, and manage relationships with the private sector to quickly expand capacity across a broad array of products to address tomorrow’s national security crises.”
