Price-Based Acquisition: Issues and Challenges for Defense Department Procurement of Weapon Systems. MG-337-AF.. Santa Monica, CA : RAND Corporation , 2005
“This report presents findings from a research study conducted by RAND Project AIR FORCE, a division of the RAND Corporation, to examine the effects of using price-based acquisition (PBA) approaches for the development and production of major Air Force weapon systems, subsystems, and other military-unique articles. Typically in these cases, the cost-based acquisition (CBA) approach is used—i.e., the price to develop and produce such an article is based on cost data that the government requires the contractor to provide.”
