First interim report on defence procurement : summary of evidence / the Honourable Percy Mockler, Chair ; the Honourable Joseph A. Day, Deputy Chair, the Honourable André Pratte, Deputy Chair.: YC13-0/421-43E-PDF

"A series of cost overruns, delays and operational difficulties have led many to question the ability of successive governments to effectively procure equipment for the Canadian Armed Forces in a timely and efficient way. The safety, security and operational capability of the Canadian Armed forces and the billions of dollars involved make it imperative to get defence procurement right. Defence procurement involves financial, technological and scheduling risks. The government must balance competing priorities, capabilities, cost and domestic economic benefits"--Executive summary, page 8.
