This guide has been prepared as a training aid for use in DSMC courses of instruction. This edition of the DSMC Acquisition Logistics Guide supersedes all previous editions. The changes made in this edition are quite substantial, reflecting the latest Department of Defense (DoD) acquisition policies and procedures as described in the DoDD 5000.1 and DoD 5000.2-R. This guide was originally designed to be one in a family of technical management educational guides written from a DoD perspective, which includes:
Systems Engineering Management Guide
Mission
Critical Computer Resources Management Guide
Test and Evaluation
Management Guide
Defense Manufacturing Management Guide
We plan to update this document at appropriate intervals, in consonance with DSMC course materials updates. This guide has been organized to facilitate future update through an "open systems" taxonomy. We also plan to provide the latest version of this guide through the DSMC Internet Home Page:
