Defense Acquisition Guidebook

The Pentagon recently revised its Defense Acquisition Guidebook, according to an update on the Defense Acquisition University's website:

Revisions include new or revised business practice associated with the Weapons Systems Acquisition Reform Act, the Better Buying Power initiatives, implementation of the Improving Milestone Process Effectiveness policy, and requirements based on various Directive Type Memorandums. In addition, new chapters have been added for Business Systems, Program Protection, and Acquisitions of Services.

The home page for the Guidebook has been re-designed to provide easier access to the chapters and the acquisition framework models.  The Milestone Document Identification (MDID) tool will reside on the Guidebook home page. The MDID tool been updated and an MDID tool specifically related to Defense Business Systems requirements will subsequently be added.
