5. Budget Outlook National Defense Army
Economic troubles continue: slow growth, little job creation, ballooning deficit.
Defense
The Budget Control Act mandates that DoD reduce spending by $489B over the next 10 years.
Defense SPENDING WILL decline. OCO will mostly end. Budget and manpower (end strength) will be reduced.
Sequestration would have a major impact
Army
If history is a guide, the Army will get more than it’s fair share of decrements
Must continue to source the War in Afghanistan…while drawing down
Aviation – last out
Reset of equipment is a critical priority

6. ACC Trends & Impacts FY 12 Contracting $’s Army spent $106B
ACC spent $74B – 70%
ACC-RSA Spent $24.7B – 33%
65B
103B
Sources: (1) FY11 & 12 Actions & Dollars Data obtained from FPDS-NG standard report (Federal, Defense, Other Defense Agency, Air Force, Navy & Army totals) (28June 2012),
(2) Actions >= $100K obtained from Army Contracting Business Intelligence System (ACBIS) Ad Hoc report on 27 June 2012 to obtain FY08-12 contracting data from FPDS-NG Contract Action Report (CAR) (27 June 2012)
(3) Total number of ACC Employees obtained from G1
The reduction in funding is declining slower than the reduction in actions is due to the following assumptions:
(1) The acquisition community has been under a Continuing Resolution Act (CRA)
for the past couple of years, this would explain the slow increase in
obligations less than $100K (i.e. more smaller dollar actions, incrementally
funded projects).
 (2) An increase in the number of high dollar large contracts (i.e. major
weapons systems, multiple award (MA) IDIQs would explain a higher pace
decline in number of actions in comparison to the decline in funding (fewer
actions over the course of a fiscal year, but constant spend).
