I will say one thing, our procurement process does waste a lot of $$ and is ripe for reform. I am retired military myself and didn’t realize how wasteful system program offices were until I got out and started my own company. Too many mindless meetings & reviews (usually with a cast of thousands), too much PowerPoint engineering, too many ECPs & schedule changes for no good reason, too much pointless TDY, and too many support contractors (including former military) who create more problems than they solve.

And it goes beyond the procurement process as well. In my 11 years as a simple Cav Scout, I saw probably at least a million dollars worth of waste, mostly in the motor pools and supply rooms.

But, I saw easily as much waste, if not more, in slightly less than two years as a Job Corps employee right here in Idaho. If DC wants to eliminate wasteful spending, do away with Job Corps altogether!
