Abstract: This research, under the direction of the principal investigators and with support from the Naval Postgraduate School, the Systems Development & Maturity Laboratory at Stevens Institute of Technology, and the Complex Logistics Cluster and the Logistics Systems and Behavioral Science Laboratory at the University of North Texas, achieved its overarching goal of using a mixed methodological approach to advance the analytical examination of performance-based acquisition and sustainment strategies (PBASS). Qualitative research studies (using methods such as grounded theory and case studies) were completed that uncovered key characteristics, metrics, and their relationships that are important for a successful performance-based contract (PBC) between a customer and a post-production service provider. Quantitative research studies (using econometrics models, operations research techniques, and diffusion models) were completed that developed analytical models, incorporating these key characteristics and metrics, to assist the acquisition, design, and support communities in making informed business decisions.
