The government often imposes requirements on their contractors for the purpose of monitoring and control. Many government contractors utilize a matrix organization structure to help cope with the government's ever changing and challenging requirements. It is both the government requirements and this matrix organization which lead to the need for special information and features in a government contractor's manufacturing/material control system. This report specifically addresses those features which would be desirable in a government contractor's MRP system. These features involve the operation of the master schedule, the bill of material, the MRP software, the inventory files, purchasing, and shop floor control. No single government requirement is in direct conflict with the intent of an MRP system. However, the interpretation of these requirements vary within the government agencies and between government contractors. The contractor, the appropriate government agency, and the software vendor, if applicable, need to work together to implement a system which satisfies both internal management needs and government requirements. This report contains features and considerations which should be evaluated when a government contractor is implementing an MRP system.

MBA Professional Report / Acquisition research (Graduate School of Business & Public Policy) / The purpose of this MBA Project is to provide a comprehensive update of the Navy Contract Writing Guide. The project was conducted with the sponsorship and assistance of the Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Research, Development, and Acquisition. The now out of date guide was originally written in 1996 in an effort to reduce problem disbursements as related to contract wording and organization. Extensive research, incorporating interviews, websites, periodicals, and texts, was employed to make the guide current. It has been reorganized to address issues and solutions in the same order in which the forms used by contracting officers and administrators have them listed. New issues have been raised since the original writing of this guide and are now incorporated with their recommended solutions. Individuals new to Naval contracting or those who have decades of experience will find the information provided useful to the efficient and effective writing and administration of government contracts.-- p.i.

Acquisition research (Graduate School of Business & Public Policy) / MBA Professional Report / The purpose of this MBA Project is to provide an update of the Navy Contract Writing Guide (NCWG) by creating an addendum that specifically addresses contract deficiencies (i.e., contract errors) and offers some tools to help its users remedy existing contract deficiencies and avoid future contract deficiencies in the writing of contracts. The project was conducted with the sponsorship and assistance of the Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Research, Development, and Acquisition in conjunction with the Defense Finance and Accounting Service, Columbus, Ohio. The guide was updated in December 2003 and again in June 2004 in an effort to provide organization and clear and concise solutions to current contract issues. This effort is viewed as a continuation of these previous efforts to better the quality and effectiveness of the NCWG. Extensive research, incorporating interviews, websites, and regulations were utilized in creating this addendum to the NCWG.
