In fact, there is a good deal of superficial competition. In this analysis of the muUibillion-dollar contracting business, the author . Stiggests how the research prociirement process ought to be changed to rid itself of super- ficial competition and the wastefulness it causes. Your review of this document should increase your understanding of the. actual process . . . And it may explain why you failed to get that last contract. — D. A. ■ How does the U. S. Government buy research and developme...nt? We know it awards over seven billion dollars per year to industrial firms, plus another billion and a half to non- profit corporations and universities. And we know there is a formal contract-award process that supposedly initiates all this funding. I have charted this formal process on the op- posite page — and it does indeed look formal, even formidable. But does it really work this way? Is it really a filtering process, as this sketch suggests? From a series of management-research in- quiries I have made, under general auspices of the NASA-sponsored MIT Organization Research ProKram, I have come to the con- clusion that actual operation of the contract- award process does not correspond to that which one would expect from the formal regu- lations.
