[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]RAND is fine. Stop with the histrionics.[/quote]

RAND isn't brining in the monthly projects needed to sustain staff even after the October RIFs. The trickle of layoffs is starting again and I expect another RIF.

And yes, I know the point of projects isn't to sustain staff but to inform policy and processes, but the business needs the revenue to pay staff and those left in RAND know even the FFRDC work is far below even revised projections. [/quote]

how’s ndri doing? that was always the moneymaker[/quote]

Big struggle bus as well. And Barry Pavel just left (or was pushed out) after just about 3 years. It's not that RAND isn't value-add, it's that even with good people doing business development and proposing potential projects, DoD officials just aren't interested. Plus there seems to be a new DOGE review that just adds bureaucracy to the process. If anyone is in RAND, either get yourself any coverage anywhere or start networking now. RAND and its FFRDCs will survive the next few years, but it'll be much smaller on the other side.[/quote]
