Description: "Arroyo research has shown that a strategy built on a foundation of three integrated building blocks will enable the Army to be the effective smart buyer and smart provider it must be to achieve the challenging S&T goals required to support the Army transformation.  The three building blocks are optimal in-house R&D, extended collaborative efforts, and smart outsourcing."--(p.4).
