[quote=Anonymous]The costs of many FFRDCs has risen so much that the cost exceeds the value proposition. The fewer the number of genuine experts with decades of experience at a given FFRDC the worse the value proposition becomes. Separately, a few FFRDCs only put people at program offices to shovel/divert RDT&E projects back to HQ. Annual evaluations at such places stress revenue generation, rather than value to the paying customer. Those projects really ought either to be bid out or possibly ought to given to a (lower cost, with similar or better expertise) Federal (civil service) lab or systems center. [/quote]
