Public Law 101-510, Defense Acquisition Workforce Improvement Act (DAWIA) became effective upon its passage for Fiscal Year 1992. The intent of the legislation is to increase the training and professionalism of the Department of Defense Acquisition Workforce. The DAWIA outlines specific requirements and qualifications for various specialties within the General Series (GS) workforce and states requirements for the qualifications of military personnel who are filling acquisition billets. This thesis will focus on the functions performed by Marines classified by Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) 3044, Contract and Acquisition Specialists. The work performed by 3044 Marines will be compared with the job descriptions-of the GS- 1 105 (Purchasing Series) and GS (Contracting Series) positions. An evaluation will determine if there should be any changes to the 3044 classification, and what other training and entrance requirements could/should be implemented in compliance with the DAWIA initiative; thus ensuring an increase in competency, proficiency and professionalism of the 3044 MOS Marines ...

The Defense Acquisition Workforce Improvement Act (DAWIA), Public Law 101-510, Title 10 U.S.C. was enacted to improve the effectiveness of the personnel who manage and implement defense acquisition programs. As part of the fiscal year 1991 Defense Authorization Act, it called for establishing an Acquisition Corps and professionalizing the acquisition workforce through education, training, and work experience. While the Act applied to both civilian and military personnel, it emphasized the need to offer civilians greater opportunities for professional development and advancement. This study examines the state of defense acquisition workforce management five years after the law was enacted. The authors will not provide a comprehensive review of DAWIA implementation throughout the entire Department of Defense (DoD), but will instead focus on selected areas. They look across military departments and defense agencies to compare and contrast their policies and procedures regarding how they manage their acquisition workforce. The primary focus is on issues pertaining to civilians, since they make up the majority of the defense acquisition workforce and are a special emphasis area in DAWIA. The authors found that much progress has been made over the past five years, and that the DoD Components have achieved significant gains in improving the quality of their acquisition workforce. But more remains to be done. Their analysis shows that two main areas need improvement: diversity of policies and practices, and disparity between civilian and military opportunities. This paper provides data to support these two findings and offers some strategies to overcome them.

The Defense Acquisition Workforce Improvement Act (DAWIA) was enacted in 1990 to improve the quality and professionalism of the Department of Defense acquisition workforce. To assess the effectiveness of DAWIA, actual outcomes of the law must be compared to its original objectives. A particular difficulty in evaluating public policies is that they usually cannot be measured in terms of output, such as dollars, hours, or physical units. The primary objective of this study was to find and introduce a performance measurement approach suitable for identifying effective metrics. A second objective was to establish a link between metrics and outcomes. Using the performance measurement approach as a tool, an analysis attempted to link acquisition workforce metrics with specific outcomes. To explore this issue, a literature review of relevant organizational and management texts on public policy analysis, performance measurement and program evaluation was conducted. Four suitable frameworks for performance measurement were found and evaluated. The preferred approach for evaluating DAWIA was determined to be a combination of two performance measurement approaches. The new approach is called Metric Assessment and Measurement Approach. It includes valuable features of the two approaches, and a newly developed metric template for evaluating metrics.

Two closely related objectives of the Defense Acquisition Workforce Improvement Act are to improve the education and professional development of the defense acquisition workforce and to expand opportunities for defense civilian acquisition professionals to serve in leadership positions. Education and training is critical to even entry-level positions in the technically demanding Department of Defense acquisition system. As individuals assume senior jobs they require more advanced and more comprehensive technical education and often need instruction in managerial or supervisory disciplines. Complete professional development for the highest-ranking positions depends on augmenting formal education with a series of diverse assignments. Evolving programs for continuing professional development offered to civilian acquisition professionals are not as effective as the ones given for military officers, however. The manpower and personnel systems used to manage civilians do not include the essential features of the military system that support rotation through a sequence of developmental assignments and formal schools. The essential features of a flourishing system are central control of authorized positions and people, mandatory mobility, and a method to account for people who are not available to perform jobs in the force stmcture.

This article examines the intent and outcomes of the Defense Acquisition Workforce Improvement Act (DAWIA) in light of research literature on the sociology of the professions. It indicates that professionalization is leading to an acquisition workforce that is expert and specialized, yet insular and careerist. Professionalism thus comes at a price, and a major question for those dealing with acquisition workforce reform issues is how to keep this price as low as possible.

Since the mid-1980s, the Department of Defense (DoD) has focused on increasing the professionalism of the acquisition workforce. These efforts have included, among other activities, the passage of the Defense Acquisition Workforce Improvement Act (DAWIA), the establishment of the Defense Acquisition University (DAU), expanded training opportunities through the DAU consortium schools, and the issuance of a Continuous Learning Policy. The 1 April 1998 Secretary of Defense report to Congress, Actions to Accelerate the Movement to the New Workforce Vision, identified and described an urgent need to transition the workforce to meet the needs of a future acquisition environment. The Future Acquisition and Technology Workforce Working Group, and its product (this report), are the culmination of a series of studies conducted by the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) and the components to support the initiatives described in the April 1998 report to Congress.
