The Honorable John Young is a Member of the Potomac Institute's Board of Regents and a Senior Fellow, and a former Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics.  He is a strong advocate for acquisition reform and cost control within the Defense Department, which he maintains could be better achieved with greater use of multiyear procurement contracts, among other options.  In a recent interview on Federal News Radio, Mr. Young made the case that lawmakers and the Defense Department must look at clearing away red tape that not only causes headaches for DoD program managers, but also wastes significant amounts of taxpayer money. Click here to read more and to listen to the interview in full.
