Commonality in Military Equipment: A Framework to Improve Acquisition Decisions

Thomas Held (German Foundation for Peace Research Germany),Bruce Oliver Newsome,Matthew W Lewis

To inform the U.S. Army’s decisionmaking process surrounding commonality in military equipment, RAND was asked to assess the advantages and disadvantages of commonality and how to best manage their trade-offs. This report presents analyses of the effects of commonality on costs, capabilities, and training and offers a decisionmaking aid that designers, developers, and procurers could use to inform their decisions about commonality.
