This paper examines the current transformation trend of allowing clients to procure facilities services directly without providing professional engineering oversight of those procurements. As Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld has pushed for a business approach to running the military, transformation plans have stressed efficiency, sometimes over effectiveness, as a measure of success. Budget pressures caused by the Global War on Terror, natural disaster response, increasingly technical and costly weapon systems, updating aging weapons systems and infrastructure, and other influences have also resulted in the mantra to do more with less. Leaders recently seem to grasp the idea that trying to do more with less is not necessarily the best thing for the long run.
