Description
Examines "reachback"--the use of contracting capability outside of the theater of operations to accomplish contracting tasks for customers in-theater--as a potential means for reducing the deployment burden on military contracting personnel. The authors find that reachback might improve performance in some areas and has the potential to reduce deployments, but other issues also need to be addressed to reduce stress on the contracting career field.
