This thesis reviews methods and techniques used to |
|
support decision making in defense acquisition. The |
|
research investigates new and conventional models and |
|
tools, and opportunities for their application in the |
|
Ministry of Defence of Finland. This topic is especially |
|
timely and important because of diminishing defense |
|
budgets and rising prices of defense systems and |
|
materiel. The size and complexity of defense investments |
|
combined with increasing costs and long life cycles of |
|
systems and projects makes this topic challenging and |
|
important. |
|
The research consists of two parts: a literature review |
|
and a case study application. The literature review |
|
identifies and describes modern methods and tools to |
|
support decision-making in defense projects. The case |
|
study describes current practices in the Finnish Defence |
|
Forces (FDF) and identifies opportunities to apply ideas |
|
and concepts from the literature to improve the |
|
acquisition process. |
|
Based on models and tools introduced in the study, it is |
|
possible to achieve both significant savings and |
|
improvements in defense acquisitions and to apply these |
|
methods to improve efficiency in defense acquisition in |
|
Finland. |
