  1. Stewardship of the Defense Industrial Base NCMA July 2004

  2. The Partnership • Industrial Might Underlies Military and Diplomatic Strength • The Nation’s Policies, Resource Commitments and Institutional Interaction Underlie Industry’s Strength • A Strong (Defense) Industrial Base Requires Close Cooperation Between Industry and Government

  3. Fair & Reasonable vs. Best Value • What’s the difference? • Best value encourages consideration of price and other factors • Fair and reasonable requires a balance between driving a hard bargain and nurturing the supplier base • Not an alternative to full and open competition • Applies to negotiation and policy development

  13. Things We Need To Avoid • Stricter Revolving Door Legislation • Asking Industry to Pay for Inherently Government Activities • Background Investigations, Patent Processing • Shifting unfair risk to contractors • Fixed Price R&D • Buy American Legislation • Rigid Export Licensing

  14. Things We Need To Pursue • Favorable Tax Laws • Responsible Trade Agreements • Adequate Export Licensing • Stable Program Funding • Share-in-Savings • Reasonable Profit Policies • In a Changed Economic Environment • Commercial Practices • Workforce Education and Training

  15. Summary • Government creates the economic environment within which industry must operate • Friendly or unfriendly • We need to refocus on ensuring a balance between the best interests of the Government and those of industry in the interest of national defense and the American taxpayers. • Provide a business environment that adequately supports the global competitiveness of the U.S. industrial base
