摘要

This research assesses the contract management process capability of the United States Special Operations Command's (USSOCOM) Special Operations Acquisition and Logistics Directorate of Procurement (SOAL-K). The assessment uses two cross-sectional surveys covering contract management processes and mentorship/informationsharing. The purpose of this research is to analyze SOAL- K's contract management processes, provide a current assessment of the contract management process maturity level for each procurement division within SOAL-K, and recommend areas for improvement through application of the Contract Management Maturity Model (CMMM) to SOAL-K's senior leadership. A mentoring/information-sharing survey is administered to examine the current mentoring/information-sharing practices of SOAL-K.
