PART 2_PILOT PROGRAM POLICY--Table of Contents

 

Sec.  2.4  Designation of participating programs.



    (a) Pilot programs may be nominated by a DoD Component Head or 

Component Acquisition Executive for participation in the Defense 

Acquisition Pilot Program. The Under Secretary of Defense for 

Acquisition and Technology shall determine which specific programs will 

participate in the pilot program and will transmit to the Congressional 

defense committees a written notification of each defense acquisition 

program proposed for participation in the pilot program. Programs 

proposed for participation must be specifically designated as 

participants in the Defense Acquisition Pilot Program in a law 

authorizing appropriations for such programs and provisions of law to be 

waived must be specifically authorized for waiver.

    (b) Once included in the Defense Acquisition Pilot Program, decision 

and approval authority for the participating program shall be delegated 

to the lowest level allowed in the acquisition regulations consistent 

with the total cost of the program (e.g., under DoD Directive 5000.1, 

\3\ an acquisition program that is a major defense acquisition program 

would be delegated to the appropriate Component Acquisition Executive as 

an acquisition category IC program)

    (c) At the time of nomination approval, the Under Secretary of 

Defense for Acquisition and Technology will establish measures to judge 

the success of a specific program, and will also establish a means of 

reporting progress towards the measures.
