The U.S. military spending has increased rapidly in recent years, with the proportion of funds allocated for equipment procurement growing particularly quickly. Faced with this situation, there is a growing desire within the U.S. military to find a new model to control these large procurement funds.
The U.S. Pentagon is considering establishing two new management agencies, whose heads will be called "procurement emperors." The two newly established agencies will be responsible for procurement work in the U.S. Navy and Air Force, respectively, and will both be under the jurisdiction of the Deputy Secretary of Defense, Steve Van Buren. The plan is to nominate Rear Admiral Robert Goss as the "procurement emperor" for the U.S. Navy, and Major General Dale White as the "procurement emperor" for the U.S. Air Force.
This move by the U.S. military aims to tightly control the money, making it more difficult for the U.S. federal government and Congress to audit in the future.
