Answer:
True
Explanation:
DoD acquisition workforce members in a wide variety of career fields are responsible for assessment,
planning and implementation of IA&E activities within the Defense Acquisition System per DoD
DAU Teaching Note provides DoD personnel, U.S. Government (USG) stakeholders, and supporting
industry with an overview of the IA&E aspects of the DAS to facilitate efficient and effective
implementation of DoD IA&E efforts that support USG foreign policy and national security goals.
The importance of this increased emphasis on IA&E efforts in the DoD is based on two
fundamental principles:
a) allied and friendly nation participation in DoD acquisition programs builds partner nation capabilities
increasing their national and coalition operational effectiveness; and,
b) partner nation involvement in our programs’ development, production, and logistics support results in
both direct and indirect cost savings, markedly enhancing U.S. and partner nation affordability
throughout the life-cycle.
DoDI 5000.02 directs DoD Program Managers (PMs) to address IA&E considerations during a DoD
program's Acquisition Strategy development and maturation throughout their program’s life-cycle.
Specifically, a PM is required by DoDI 5000.02 to address the
program's IA&E aspects within the Acquisition Strategy consistent with their understanding of
opportunities in “domestic and international markets, foreign disclosure, exportability, technology
transfer, and security requirements”. This guidance is further emphasized and expanded upon in DODI 5000.02 which states:
“Program management is responsible for integrating international acquisition and exportability
considerations into the program’s Acquisition Strategy at each major milestone or decision point.
Program management will consider the potential demand and likelihood of cooperative development or
production, Direct Commercial Sales, or Foreign Military Sales early in the acquisition planning
process; and consider U.S. export control laws, regulations, and DoD policy for international transfers
when formulating and implementing the acquisition strategy; in accordance with DoD Instruction. Where appropriate, program managers will pursue cooperative opportunities
and international involvement throughout the acquisition life cycle to enhance international cooperation
and improve interoperability in accordance with DoD Instruction
