Abstract:
The merging of two departments into the Acquisitions and Collection Development Department afforded Loyola Marymount University an opportunity to rethink existing workflows, with the acquisition of electronic books (e-books) being identified as a critical task to review. Process mapping was used to show the complexity of different tasks being performed in the department and to provide a visualization mechanism for staff to see how their work fit into a sequence of actions as part of a larger workflow. The authors listed the types of acquisition models used at their library for e-books and constructed process maps for the following six major types: 1. Firm order e-books; 2. Firm order e-book collections; 3. Approval order e-books; 4. Demand-driven e-books; 5. Standing order e-books, and; 6. Subscription e-book database. The authors merged the individual process maps into a single visualization to view the entirety of the acquisition process as a whole and to show how the different e-book acquisition models relate and diverge from one another.

Abstract:
The context of knowledge management determines the following research question: how theoretical constructs of knowledge management are realised in the performance of academic departments? The research aim is to identify the implementation of study-related knowledge management process at academic department. The empirical research is based on the case study strategy. After targeted selection of cases, in-depth interviews were carried out at two academic departments, where groups of experts had been identified. The collected data were processed by criterion-based analysis. The Department X possesses expertise in education and methodological competence in curriculum construction and study process realisation; study-related processes of collective and individual knowledge management are articulated by study-related terminology and informal identification of knowledge in the process of social interaction dominates here; unfortunately little coordination is given to the acquisition, dissemination, creation, storage and application of knowledge. The Department Y informally reduces the study-related knowledge to the concept of professionalism and knowledge of the study programme content; methodological competence of designing and implementing a study programme (module) is referred to as developing. In this context, the need for knowledge acquisition is realised by attracting external expert knowledge. At this Department, the process of study related knowledge is not systemic and strongly coordinated; individual not collective efforts prevail. Summarising the analysis of the two case-studies, it is evident that a formalized system of knowledge management has not been yet created and implemented in the departments. However, the educational and subject-related competences of the department lead to unintentional knowledge management process that is naturally taking place through the process of studies management with the prevailing non-formal activities of organizational knowledge identification, acquisition, creation, dissemination, storage and application.

Abstract:
<p><em>Technology acquisitions have become an important external source of innovation. But notwithstanding the abundant literature on the topic, relatively little is known about the acquisition process itself and how it impacts acquisition performance. Some papers have used a process perspective as point of departure, but these studies focus at one component of the acquisition process and neglect to question how these different process components interact to influence acquisition performance. To address this gap, we carefully scrutinize each process component for its influence on the subsequent acquisition stages and performance. Using a case study design, we find that the decisions and managerial actions taken in the search and selection phase have an important impact on the success of implementation. We identify search and involvement of the client department as crucial mechanisms in the acquisition process and reveal their implications for the structure and composition of the team managing the acquisition.</em></p>

Abstract:
The knowledge acquisition model proposed in this paper is designed to assist with the acquisition of knowledge in a company possessing its own maintenance department. The model is built on the basis of knowledge bases. The authors focus on basic information required for maintenance department operation and expert archiving of technical documentation. Three main areas are covered by the model: knowledge acquisition and formalization, knowledge systematization and knowledge retrieval by problem or field. It is assumed that the implementation of the model coupled with an electronic knowledge acquisition report and with an application for information retrieval will bring benefits for the company.

Abstract:
The U.S. Government has promoted defense industry consolidation in the past decade as part of its acquisition reform policies, to help control costs and promote efficiency. But when the Department of Defense (DoD) reversed its pro-consolidation policy, defense firms were left financially less secure from the acquisitions and mergers—and the hoped-for reductions in tangible assets have been marginal. What is the best way forward?

MBA Professional Report
The purpose of this MBA project is to determine how best to collect empirical data regarding the current state of services acquisition management of the installation level within the Department of Defense and conduct an initial analysis of collected data. The project designed a web-based, self-administered, cross-sectional survey using SurveyMonkey, a web-based survey engine. The survey's pilot test was conducted between mid-October and early November 2007 and obtained a 50 percent response rate. Of the respondents, 60 percent was Army, 20 percent was Marine Corps, and 20 percent Air Force. The pilot test captured valuable data which was analyzed; however improvements to the core survey maay generate a higher response rate and provide a clearer picture of the current state of services acquisition management at the installation level within the Department of Defense. The results of this project will support on-going research in the area of services acquisition management.

The current Department of Defense (DOD) multiyear acquisition process is too costly and takes far too long for weapon systems to be developed. To help the DOD address this challenge a model was developed that will mature and transition technology into formal system development. The team utilized a tailored systems engineering strategy, including requirements analysis, functional architecting, modeling, simulation, and risk analysis when developing the Technology Development System (TDS) model. The TDS is based on risk assessment, detailed planning, and early system prototyping in order to successfully proceed into formal system development with proven technologies. This model was developed with the intent that it be extendable to all program offices within the DOD. The TDS leveraged attributes and known best practices from doctrinal sources combined into a step-by-step development process. The context surrounding successful prototyping still lacks the proper knowledge-based approach needed to make the effort worthwhile. The architecture, model, and simulation together provide the traceability, validation, and system requirements to define system entry criteria, accurately plan and conduct technology maturation, and reduce the cost and technical risk associated with early system development within the DOD acquisition life cycle.

Risk management has been proven to be a valuable tool to identify and mitigate risks early in the program life-cycle. Modernization and communication advances have recently changed the commercial economy from national to global. Companies are starting to venture into new partnerships with foreign companies. However, there has also been an increase in business corruption, like Fannie Mac and Enron, which has raised skepticism in entering new partnerships. Industry is addressing this fact by no longer exclusively depending on science as the determining factor in risk assessment and starting to include trust as a factor in risk management. Qualitative measurements are being analyzed in attempted to address these uncertainties by incorporating trust into the risk management process. The purpose of this paper was to determine whether it was feasible and advantageous to incorporate trust into the risk management process for Department of Defense (DOD) acquisition. The premise of this research was that there were hidden risk factors attributed to qualitative measures that were not being identified in current DOD risk management processes. A preliminary conclusion of this thesis is that trust is a valuable factor in the risk assessment process that can help identify qualitative risk elements.

Leveraging current and future International Cooperation opportunities, such as Foreign Military Sales and Cooperative Programs throughout the entire Department of Defense System Acquisition Framework could contribute to and enhance the systems acquired domestically and create additional Foreign Military Sales opportunities. Historically, International Cooperation is not considered in the acquisition process until sometime around initial operational capability or full operational capability. Considering International Cooperation earlier in the acquisition process may prove beneficial to the domestic side if Department of Defense systems can be developed and acquired to accommodate our foreign partner’s interoperability requirements and releaseability restrictions. The overall outcome of this study will be to identify the various entry points in the acquisition framework for International Cooperation and how that will benefit or deter the domestic program offices system acquisition efforts. Our research and analysis will focus on examples of various levels of effort that have been required to go back and retrofit a system to make it available to Foreign Military Sales and then identify where it could have been done more efficiently if considered earlier in the framework.

Abstract:
Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited
Department of Defense (DOD) Development Test and Evaluation (DT&E) activities for new acquisitions account for a large portion of time and money during the Engineering and Manufacturing Development Phase. DOD Program Management Office test personnel develop test schedules manually using time estimates and heuristic subject matter expert advice for each test to forecast the overall time and costs associated with a developed course of action. These manually constructed schedules take weeks to develop via many planning iterations to construct an acceptable, but not necessarily feasible or optimal solution. Ultimately, these forecast schedules and duration estimates can be inaccurate, and may result in schedule delays and/or cost overruns. This thesis presents an optimization and simulation model as a decision support tool to improve current DT&E scheduling. We represent this resource-constrained scheduling problem as an integer linear program, and develop set enumeration reduction techniques, as well as a cascade method to reduce solve times. The proposed model, unlike current manual scheduling techniques, suggests schedules that are feasible, nearly optimal, and are produced quickly for effective analysis of alternatives.

Abstract:
In 2015, private sector Department of Defense (DoD) contractors experienced decreasing profit margins by approximately 8% and an increase in estimated costs of approximately 250%. The purpose of this multicase study was to explore strategies used by business leaders of private sector contractors for DoD capacity-building projects to accurately estimate program costs to improve profitability. The target population for this study was business leaders of DoD capacity-building program contractors with successful experience improving cost-estimation processes and strategies in Southeast Asia and the former Soviet Union. The conceptual framework for this study was business process quality management with a supporting framework of game theory. The data collection process comprised semistructured virtual interviews and a review of government and corporate documents. The data analysis process consisted of compiling data, disassembling data, reassembling data into groups and themes, and interpreting data, including methodological triangulation. Through data analysis, 5 themes were identified: enhanced customer relationships, increasing ability to innovate, improved project awareness, acquisition policy and political environments, and identification of labor rates and pricing. The implications for social change include the potential for DoD private industry business leaders to develop business strategies that result in improved profitability, creating opportunities to increase local economic impact and wage scales for local employees, higher levels of employment, and increased local technical knowledge.

MBA Professional Report
The purpose of this MBA Project is to discuss the use of the coordinative acquisition tool, which supports Defense Acquisition Performance Assessment (DAPA) recommendations calling for more streamlined acquisition architecture. Specifically, we conduct an analysis of the coordinative acquisition strategy as presented by Dr. Joseph P. Avery in his January 2006 presentation entitled, "Coordinative Acquisition Strategies; Hyperswift Response to the Warfighter" as an acquisition tool used outside of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR). We compare this method to DoD Directive 5000.1, DAPA, and other acquisition policies calling for acquisition cycle-time reduction and for a more simplified acquisition architecture. We also conduct a case study on the Rapid Identification Friend or Foe (RIFF) test kit prototype and develop lessons learned as it relates to DoD-wide implementation of coordinative acquisition as a viable streamlined acquisition tool for rapid acquisition of immature technologies necessary for warfighter support. We also discuss interviews with Government and industry representatives at all levels in order to better explore legal and ethical considerations of coordinative acquisition. Feedback from these interviews provides useful insight into industry's actual willingness to accept this form of acquisition for future projects within the DoD.

Abstract:
AbstractThe United States remains the world’s preeminent military and technological power. Over the last decade, the United States has increasingly viewed artificial intelligence (AI) proficiency as a vital U.S. interest and mechanism for assuring U.S. military and economic power, recognizing its potential as a force multiplier. As a result, the United States is actively implementing AI across its defense and armed services, with notable applications in Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR), Cyber, Autonomous Systems, Command and Control, Disaster Relief, and Logistics. The United States government is generally well-placed to leverage defense AI and AI-enabled systems. However, various bureaucratic, organizational, and procedural hurdles have slowed down progress on defense AI adoption and technology-based innovation such that the Department of Defense has yet to successfully, on a broad scale, translate commercial AI developments into real military capabilities. The U.S. Department of Defense suffers from a complex acquisition process and a widespread shortfall of data, STEM, and AI talent and training. Organizations working on AI and AI-related technologies and projects are often siloed, separated not only from each other but also from necessary data and other resources, and there exists within the department a culture that favors tried-and-true methods and systems, sometimes trending towards Luddism. In the last few years, however, the Defense Department has made substantial headway on some of these challenges, restructuring its approach to defense AI. However, whether these new AI efforts will be sufficient to allow the U.S. to make up for time lost remains to be seen.

AbstractLaparoscopic instrumentation ranging from operating telescopes and fiber optic light cables to surgical instruments represents a substantial investment for the operating theater department [1, 3]. The delicate nature of these devices and the high cost involved in the acquisition and subsequently to maintain or repair them when damaged, warrants surgeons, nurses, and reprocessing personnel to handle them carefully and appropriately at all times. Proper care and handling of laparoscopic instrumentation can help to prolong their lifespan and maintain them at an optimal performance level. With the goal of delivering the finest in-patient care, all surgical team members and reprocessing personnel must be familiar with the use of and recommendations for care and handling of all laparoscopic instrumentation.

Abstract:
In the scientific work, the authors provided a critical and constructive analysis of Draft Law No. 5644 “On Amendments to Some Legislative Acts of Ukraine on Improving the Regulation of Notarial Activities.The authors began this analysis with the Explanatory Note to Draft Law No. 5644, where the necessity of its adoption in the version in which it passed the first reading is substantiated. Attention was drawn to inaccurate and incomplete data regarding the historical excursion and stages of development of the notary of Ukraine, which are referred to in the Explanatory Note, and revealed the pitfalls that the Ukrainian notary went through and all the negative consequences that occurred as a result of ill-conceived changes, in particular, access to the profession, etc.The provisions of the draft law on the transfer from the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine to the Notary Chamber of Ukraine of all powers of control over the organization and notarial activity, raising the professional level of notaries and their compliance with the rules of ethics were analyzed, and an opinion was expressed regarding the expediency of such changes.In addition, agreeing with the conclusion of the Main Expert Department about the danger of corruption in the case of the liquidation of state notary offices and the acquisition by state notaries who will be subject to the release of the preferential right to lease state or communal property for the placement of a notary office in the notary district belonging to the list of notary districts in which the number of notaries is insufficient.A reasoned opinion on the inexpediency of granting notaries additional powers to establish the facts of family relations between natural persons, the fact of ownership of legal documents to a person, which currently belong to the powers of the court, and warnings are made regarding negative consequences, or possibly abuses and criminal offenses that will occur in the case of certification such facts by notaries.Emphasis is placed on the expediency of improving such notarial proceedings as the provision of evidence, regulation of the methods and procedures of such provision in the legislation on notaries.The provisions of the legislation are given, which testify to the imperfection of the notarial procedure and its influence on the protection of the rights of subjects of civil relations and the responsibility of notaries. An analysis of court practice regarding notary offenses is provided.Other important issues proposed in the Draft Law were analyzed, in particular, the expediency of introducing an electronic notary and its coordination with archives on paper media in order to ensure the rights of individuals to receive a certain notarial act in the event of its loss.A thorough analysis of the concept of “Notary in Ukraine” proposed in the Draft Law and other violations of the legislative technique is provided. It was concluded that Draft Law No. 5644 needs substantial revision.

AbstractWhen examining the acquisition of the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) by most western defence departments, the close historical and military connections between these countries with the United States only go so far in terms of an explanation for why some have adopted this platform and others have not. Adoption is by no means automatic and the features of large military platform procurement processes, which are both long-term and involve very large expenditures, with their idiosyncratic nature, multiple actors and strategic policy directions, have played an important role in this area, just as they have when purchasing warships and other military equipment. In this chapter, we compare how Australia and Canada chose to operate when considering the replacement of their ageing F-18 multirole fighters. Again, this process features two very similar countries and the same weapons system, and the different outcome each has had in this case again reveals the significant factors concerning the processes which led to those decisions, and the impact of politics in explaining both the commonalities and differences in the defence procurement approaches of the two countries.

Abstract:
This article reports on a study that investigates the knowledge transfer between an information systems/ technology (IS/IT) department and non-IT departments during IT projects. More specifically, we look into the link between the knowledge management capabilities of the IT department and the effectiveness and efficiency of the knowledge transfer to a client department. Knowledge management (KM) capabilities are defined by Gold, Malhotra, and Segars (2001) as the combination of knowledge infrastructure capabilities (structural, technical, and cultural) and knowledge processes capabilities (acquisition, conversion, application, and protection). Data collected through a Web-based survey result in 127 usable questionnaires completed by managers in large Canadian organizations. Data analysis performed using partial least squares (PLS) indicates that knowledge infrastructure capabilities are related to the knowledge transfer success, and more specifically to its effectiveness whereas knowledge processes capabilities are only related to the efficiency of such transfer. Implications of our results for research and practice are also discussed.

Abstract:
Beginning in the 1980’s, a significant number of Department of Energy facilities have been shut down and are in the decommissioning process. The shutdown of additional facilities is planned. In addition, during the past several decades, the Department of Energy has loaned nuclear material to a wide variety of private and governmental institutions for research and educational purposes. Subsequent changes in the Department’s priorities have reduced the need for nuclear materials to support the Department’s programs. Similarly, there has been a reduction in the need for borrowed nuclear materials by organizations and institutions using nuclear materials “on loan” from the Department. As a result, inventories of uranium material from the Department’s facilities and “on loan” must be removed and returned to the Department. This material is in the form of low enriched uranium (LEU), normal uranium (NU), and depleted uranium (DU) in various forms. This uranium material is located at over one hundred sites within the United States and overseas, including universities and laboratories. Much of this uranium is not needed to support national priorities and programs. The Department of Energy has assumed a stewardship role in managing nuclear materials throughout their life cycle, from acquisition to storage. Surplus uranium has created challenges for DOE in managing and storing the material as well as identifying opportunities for its further use. On behalf of the Department, the Oak Ridge Operations Office has been given the responsibility to implement the Department responsibilities in meeting these challenges and managing the Department’s uranium materials. To support this effort, the Office of Nuclear Fuel Security and Uranium Technology within the ORO complex coordinates uranium management functions across the Department of Energy. This coordination provides DOE with a number of important benefits, among which are: consolidated management and storage of uranium; improved security; a reduction of operating costs; effective use and reuse of DOT certified shipping containers; and accelerated site closure.

Abstract:
This case study evaluates the challenges encountered in the Blended Learning development using a Virtual Learning Environment in two universities in the city of Ia?i-Romania: the Technical ,,Gheorghe Asachi" (http://moodle.ee.tuiasi.ro/ )and ,,Al. I. Cuza" Universities of Ia?i (http://www.moodle.ro/uaic/). The paper examines a variety of determinants that influence technology acceptance and successful implementation of the VLE in the educational field. The study begins with an examination of Moodle Virtual Learning Environment, which can provide course materials such as handouts, lecture notes and PowerPoint presentations to the students. Moodle can be used in more interactive ways, which require input from the students. Such as discussion forums, chat rooms, quizzes and assignment drop boxes. There are analyzed the technological factors influencing technology adoption including issues surrounding acquisition, management and support of a VLE in secondary and high schools. We explore teacher level factors of Moodle VLE acceptance and how teacher attitudes to such platform are developed. The findings show that there are specific technological, teacher level and school level factors influencing Moodle acceptance. They also show that teacher attitudes to the implementation of the Moodle in the school are tied to their attitudes and responses to national objectives in education and national strategies for reshaping learning. Although the number of distance courses has risen significantly over the last years, mixed modes of delivery, with face-to-face settings supported by online tools, remain the dominant form of online learning. There is clearly a need in the literature for greater exploration of flexible modes of learning, including e-tools, especially when teaching computational skills to engineering and university students. Moodle logs and statistics were examined along with documentation relating to this VLE.
