PURPOSE: Waiver of Senior Review Board (SRB) Process for Advanced Acquisition Planning (AAP) to procure external phenomenological research and analysis. 2. BACKGROUND: a. DIA first learned of the possibility of receiving Congressionally directed funds for conducting phenomenological research and analysis in mid-October 1990. Actual funding levels were not known until late November and the funds were not received in DIA until December 1990. b. Since this activity was not originally planned by DIA, there was no way to initiate an AAP package as required by February 1990. Consequently, due to the unexpected nature of this Congressional action, the resulting late timing of contract package initiation, and the need to expedite procurement to facilitate time critical research and planning actions, it is essential that a waiver for SRB involvement in processing this purchase request be granted. 3. RECOMMENDATION: ED approve waiver of SRB process for purchase request 330/0012Z/91 signing endorsement on this Staff Summary Sheet. I ENCLOSURE Procurement Request 330/0012Z/91 OHN T.
