Why is DOD transforming?
A2. Over time, the defense strategy calls for the transformation of the U.S. Defense establishment. Transformation is at the heart of this strategy.

Without change, the current defense program will only become more expensive in the future, and DoD will forfeit many of the opportunities available today.
