Acquisition Strategy Briefing Template
•
•
•
•
•
•
This template is TMA’s preferred model for briefing the Decision Authority
(DA) for acquisitions of services. It is designed to guide the user through the
myriad of topics and issues to be addressed in an acquisition strategy.
Each strategy should address those topics that apply.
The basic goal of this briefing is to demonstrate to the DA a well thought-out
acquisition strategy that considered all the important issues.
This template addresses all of the potential areas DoD and TMA require to
be addressed when discussing a particular program strategy.
– See DODI 5000.02 Enclosure 9 and TMA TAD 37-01 for specific
guidance for acquisitions of services.
Additional guidance is provided in the ‘Speaker's Notes’ associated with each
slide in this briefing.
Sample charts are provided for some areas. If the sample charts are not
appropriate for your presentation, alternate charts may be used consistent
with the type of information and the specifics of your acquisition.
