Abstract :
The US Air Force R&M 2000 Action Plan makes R&M equal to technical performance and schedule in source selection, proposal evaluation and contract performance. This paper discusses that coequality. R&M 2000 provides an opportunity for the practitioners to achieve a new high water mark in technology by institutionalizing the objectives toward a common cause.
