Book Description
The Department of the Navy wants to improve shore installation operations, readiness, and management by skillfully leveraging state-of-the-market technologies and business methods such as outsourcing, privatization, and partnerships with state and local governments, with a goal of reduced cost of infrastructure. For the Navy itself, where all forces float or fly, the shore establishment is synonymous with infrastructure, which includes "all activities that provide sup port or control of forces from fixed bases of operation."
