The Symposium provides a forum for the presentation of scholarly acquisition research, as well as for dialogue between scholars and acquisition policymakers and practitioners. Research papers and presentations are given on recently completed and ongoing DoD/DON-sponsored projects conducted by researchers at a variety of research institutions. Senior DoD/DON acquisition officials serve as panelists or keynote speakers to present their critiques and comments on research papers and priorities.

The event is sponsored by the Acquisition Research Program, Department of Defense Management in conjunction with Naval Warfare Studies Institute at the Naval Postgraduate School.
