075204 SINGLE MANAGERS
1. GENERAL. The single manager concept is employed, as appropriate, for
the management of commodities, common-service activities, and functional
areas. The objectives are to eliminate duplication and overlapping of effort
between and within military departments and agencies and to improve
effectiveness and economy of supply and service operations throughout the
Department of Defense (DoD). Specific single manager assignments are
made by the Secretary of Defense (SECDEF). Under the mutual agreement of
the military departments, the single manager concept is applied to training of
military and civilian personnel in service-operated schools in order to
consolidate the provision of joint use services where possible within the
military departments.
2. DEFINITIONS
a. Single Manager. A single manager is the Secretary of a military
department, or his representative, who has been tasked with the
responsibility for the organization and operation of a particular single
manager assignment. Such assignments are made typically for
procurement of a specific commodity, either on a recurring or
nonrecurring basis, or for provision of a service to be made available to all
DoD components on a reimbursable or nonreimbursable basis. The term
"single manager" also is descriptive of the manager responsible for
providing joint use services as agreed to by the military departments,
although not specifically designated by SECDEF.
