WSM 014 Acquisition Strategy Development Workshop (ASDW)
 Description
The Acquisition Strategy Development Workshop guides the multi-functional integrated product team (MFIPT) through the key content areas of the acquisition strategy. The DAU facilitators guide the MFIPT in developing initial acquisition strategy content, culminating with a debrief to a senior acquisition leader. Each workshop is tailored to the team’s unique program circumstances. The duration is typically 3-4 days.

The ASDW is also available to staff as a “class” version which provides an opportunity to practice critical thinking skills in a safe environment as an open workshop. This version of the workshop enables teams to develop a strategy based on a realistic program scenario. It also culminates with a debrief of the strategy to a senior acquisition leader.
